Fructose and Sucrose Intake Increase Exogenous Carbohydrate Oxidation during Exercise.

ABSTRACT: Peak exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates typically reach ~1 g?min-1 during exercise when ample glucose or glucose polymers are ingested. Fructose co-ingestion has been shown to further increase exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates. The purpose of this study was to assess the impact of fructose co-ingestion provided either as a monosaccharide or as part of the disaccharide sucrose on exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates during prolonged exercise in trained cyclists. Ten trained male cyclists (VO2peak: 65 ± 2 mL?kg-1?min-1) cycled on four different occasions for 180 min at 50% Wmax during which they consumed a carbohydrate solution providing 1.8 g?min-1 of glucose (GLU), 1.2 g?min-1 glucose + 0.6 g?min-1 fructose (GLU + FRU), 0.6 g?min-1 glucose + 1.2 g?min-1 sucrose (GLU + SUC), or water (WAT). Peak exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates did not differ between GLU + FRU and GLU + SUC (1.40 ± 0.06 vs. 1.29 ± 0.07 g?min-1, respectively, p = 0.999), but were 46% ± 8% higher when compared to GLU (0.96 ± 0.06 g?min-1: p < 0.05). In line, exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates during the latter 120 min of exercise were 46% ± 8% higher in GLU + FRU or GLU + SUC compared with GLU (1.19 ± 0.12, 1.13 ± 0.21, and 0.82 ± 0.16 g?min-1, respectively, p < 0.05). We conclude that fructose co-ingestion (0.6 g?min-1) with glucose (1.2 g?min-1) provided either as a monosaccharide or as sucrose strongly increases exogenous carbohydrate oxidation rates during prolonged exercise in trained cyclists.

Project description:The purpose of this study was to evaluate the substrate oxidation of three commercially available, 14%-carbohydrate sports drinks with different compositions, osmolality, and pH for their impact on dental exposure to low pH. In a cross-over, randomized double-blinded design, 12 endurance athletes (age 31. 2 ± 7.7 years, V ˙ O2max 65.6 ± 5.0 mL·kg-1) completed 180 min of cycling at 55% Wmax. During the first 100 min of cycling, athletes consumed amylopectin starch (AP), maltodextrin+sucrose (MD+SUC), or maltodextrin+fructose hydrogel (MD+FRU) drinks providing 95 g carbohydrate·h-1, followed by water intake only at 120 and 160 min. Fuel use was determined using indirect calorimetry and stable-isotope techniques. Additionally, dental biofilm pH was measured using the microtouch method in a subsample of participants (n = 6) during resting conditions before, and at different time intervals up to 45 min following a single bolus of drink. Exogenous carbohydrate oxidation (CHOEXO) during the 2nd hour of exercise was significantly (P < 0.05) different between all three drinks: MD+FRU (1.17 ± 0.17 g·min-1), MD+SUC (1.01 ± 0.13 g·min-1), and AP (0.84 ± 0.11 g·min-1). At the end of exercise, CHOEXO and blood glucose concentrations (3.54 ± 0.50, 4.07 ± 0.67, and 4.28 ± 0.47 mmol·L-1, respectively) were significantly lower post MD+FRU consumption than post MD+SUC and AP consumption (P < 0.05). Biofilm acidogenicity at rest demonstrated a less pronounced pH fall for MD+FRU compared to the acidulant-containing MD+SUC and AP (P < 0.05). In conclusion, while total intake of MD+FRU showed signs of completed uptake before end of monitoring, this was less so for MD+SUC, and not at all the case for AP. Thus, this study showed that despite carbohydrates being encapsulated in a hydrogel, a higher CHOEXO was observed following MD+FRU drink ingestion compared to AP and MD+SUC consumption upon exposure to the acidic environment of the stomach. This finding may be related to the higher fructose content of the MD+FRU drink compared with the MD+SUC and AP drinks. Furthermore, a carbohydrate solution without added acidulants, which are commonly included in commercial sport drinks, may have less deleterious effects on oral health.

Project description:Background: Substantial interindividual variability exists in the maximal rate of fat oxidation (MFO) during exercise with potential implications for metabolic health. Although the diet can affect the metabolic response to exercise, the contribution of a self-selected diet to the interindividual variability in the MFO requires further clarification.Objective: We sought to identify whether recent, self-selected dietary intake independently predicts the MFO in healthy men and women.Design: The MFO and maximal oxygen uptake ([Formula: see text]O2 max) were determined with the use of indirect calorimetry in 305 healthy volunteers [150 men and 155 women; mean ± SD age: 25 ± 6 y; body mass index (BMI; in kg/m2): 23 ± 2]. Dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry was used to assess body composition with the self-reported physical activity level (SRPAL) and dietary intake determined in the 4 d before exercise testing. To minimize potential confounding with typically observed sex-related differences (e.g., body composition), predictor variables were mean-centered by sex. In the analyses, hierarchical multiple linear regressions were used to quantify each variable's influence on the MFO.Results: The mean absolute MFO was 0.55 ± 0.19 g/min (range: 0.19-1.13 g/min). A total of 44.4% of the interindividual variability in the MFO was explained by the [Formula: see text]O2 max, sex, and SRPAL with dietary carbohydrate (carbohydrate; negative association with the MFO) and fat intake (positive association) associated with an additional 3.2% of the variance. When expressed relative to fat-free mass (FFM), the MFO was 10.8 ± 3.2 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1 (range: 3.5-20.7 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1) with 16.6% of the variability explained by the [Formula: see text]O2 max, sex, and SRPAL; dietary carbohydrate and fat intakes together explained an additional 2.6% of the variability. Biological sex was an independent determinant of the MFO with women showing a higher MFO [men: 10.3 ± 3.1 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1 (3.5-19.9 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1); women: 11.2 ± 3.3 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1 (4.6-20.7 mg · kg FFM-1 · min-1); P < 0.05].Conclusion: Considered alongside other robust determinants, dietary carbohydrate and fat intake make modest but independent contributions to the interindividual variability in the capacity to oxidize fat during exercise. This trial was registered at clinicaltrials.gov as NCT02070055.

Project description:Purpose: Obesity is a global health issue. To investigate if protein and fat contents of the diets had effects on energy balance via the canonical hunger signaling pathways in the hypothalamus, RNAseq was performed on RNA extracted from the hypothalami of mice exposed to the different diets. A suggested mechanism by which animals may avoid obesity is by burning off excess energy via upregulation of white adipose tissue (WAT) browning. To investigate if protein and fat content of the diet had effects on energy balance via the browning related signaling pathways in the WAT, RNAseq was performed on RNA extracted from the subcutaneous WAT (sWAT) and epididymal WAT (eWAT) of mice exposed to the different diets. Methods: C57BL/6 male mice were used in this work. All mice were fed a standard diet with 10% fat and 20% protein (D12450B, Research Diets Ltd) for 2 weeks as the baseline period. Following 2 weeks of baseline monitoring (at age 12 weeks), all mice were randomly allocated to different groups and switched to the experimental diets for 12 weeks. After 12 weeks all mice were sacrificed and dissected. Methods: In total, mice were fed on 4 diet series, each series consisting of 6 different diets (total = 24 diets). In the first two series (Series 1: D14071601–D14071606 and series 2: D14071607 – D14071612) we fixed the level of fat by energy, and varied the protein content. The protein source was casein. The balance was made up by carbohydrate (roughly equal mix of corn starch and maltodextrose). The source of fat was a mix of cocoa butter, coconut oil, menhaden oil, palm oil and sunflower oil. This mix was designed to match the balance of saturated, mono-unsaturated and polyunsaturated fats (ratio 47.5: 36.8: 15.8) and the n-6: n-3 ratio (14.7: 1) in the typical western diet. The proportions of the different fat constituents and hence fatty acid distributions did not change as the total fat content changed. Sucrose and cellulose were both fixed 5% by energy and weight respectively, and all diets were supplemented with a standard vitamin and mineral mix. In the second two series of diets (series 3: D14071613 – D14071618 and series 4: D14071619 – D14071624) we fixed the level of protein by energy and then allowed the fat content to vary. In these diets the sucrose, cellulose and vitamin and mineral contents were the same as the diets in series 1 and 2. All these diets can be ordered direct from research diets (www.researchdiets.com) using the diet codes provided. Methods: From each diet group, the hypothalami of 8/20 individuals were collected. The left halves of two, and the right halves of another two, were pooled together as one sample, and the same was performed with the other 4 hypothalami, resulting in each diet group having 2 pooled samples of 4 hypothalami (n = 48 samples in total across 24 diets). From each diet group, the sWAT and eWAT of 12/20 individuals were also collected. A small piece from each of six sWAT collections were pooled together as one sample, and the same was performed with the other six eWAT collections. In this way each diet group had one pooled sWAT sample and one pooled eWAT sample (also n = 48 across 24 diets). Methods: The total RNA of the hypothalamus and WAT was isolated using the RNeasy Mini Kit (QIAGEN, 74104) according to manufacturer's protocol. All sequencing was carried out using the Illumina NextSeq 500 sequencer. RNA fragments were sequenced by 75 bp long reads from paired ends (PE 2 x 75 bp, 150 bp per fragment). Quality control checks for raw data FASTQ files were done by using FASTQC (a quality control tool for high throughput sequence data; http://www.bioinformatics.babraham.ac.uk/projects/fastqc/). Paired-end reads were mapped to the Mus musculus genome (GRCm38) using Bowtie 2-2.1.0, TopHat-2.0.10, and Samtools-0.1.19; uniquely mapped reads for each gene were counted against the GTF file of GRCm38 provided by Ensembl (release 83) using HTSeq-0.6.1p1 using the strand = reverse; after read count data were obtained from the TopHat-HTSeq pipeline, counts per million (CPM) value for each gene was calculated by using the R package ‘edgeR’ (version 3.12.0, R version 3.2.2) to normalize the count data by the size of the library of each sample. Genes with the CPM value ≥ 1 in at least one of the 24 diets group were retained (Anders et al., 2013). Generalized Linear Modelling (GLM) was applied by R (version 3.2.2). The GLM model used here was: ~p+f+p:f, which regresses gene expression (CPM) against the protein (p) and fat contents (f) of diets, as well as their interaction (p:f). However, when the effect of the interaction was not significant (p value ≥ 0.05), the interaction term was dropped and a revised model (~p+f) was utilized. Results: With TopHat-HTSeq pipeline, reads of each sample were mapped to 46,078 genes. In hypothalamus there were 15,371 genes with the counts per million (CPM) value ≥ 1 in at least one of the 24 diets group; in white adipose tissue there were 18,202 genes with the CPM value ≥ 1 in at least one of the 24 diets group. No major changes in hypothalamic gene expression levels were found in relation to different dietary protein levels at fixed fat contents, however hypothalamic gene expression showed increase in expression of genes in reward pathways in relation to dietary fat, while Agrp and Npy were both downregulated in relation to dietary fat levels. WAT gene expression showed decrease in expression of general thermogenic related genes and WAT browning related genes in relation to both dietary protein and dietary fat, while Tgfb1, Pdk4 and Fgf1 were all upregulated in relation to dietary fat levels. Conclusions: Significant positive associations were evident between the fat levels of the diet and the main hedonic signaling systems linked to food intake. Significant negative associations were found between both protein and fat levels of the diet and WAT browning or general thermogenic signalings linked to energy expenditure.
