Do Glucose Containing Beverages Play A Role In Thermoregulation, Thermal Sensation, And Mood State?

Abstract

Introduction: Dehydration limits the appropriate delivery of oxygen and substrates to the working muscle. Further, the brain's ability to function may also be compromised whereby thermal sensation and mood state may be altered. Purpose: The purpose of the present investigation was to compare the thermoregulatory, perceptual, and negative mood state profile in glucose (GLU) vs. non-glucose beverage (NON-GLU) condition.
