3 Blood/urine : PreEx Post Ex 1h Blood/urine : PreEx Post Ex 1h BASELINE TESTING for VO 2max, body composition (N=2 subjects) 1week 1 week 75km cycling 75km cycling 3week washout Crossover 1week 1week 75km cycling 75km cycling Metabolomics: Goal is to measure the influence of on small molecules (metabolites) that shift in response to supplementation. The shift in metabolites, depending on the nutritional product, may represent effects on inflammation, oxidative stress, and physiologic stress. Slide 2

4 Working Summary Slide 3 Seven days ingestion of (relative to placebo) caused an extensive mobilization of free fatty acids from adipose tissue in male cyclists. Athletes on for 7days started the 75km cycling trial with high blood free fatty acids leading to increased fat oxidation and a sparing of amino acids (and potentially muscle glycogen). intake was associated with a large increase in serum ascorbic acid levels (probably from the adrenal cortex). Serum creatinine and urea also increased postexercise.

5 Finding 1: Ingestion of beverage for one week strongly increased serum fatty acids levels (most likely from adipose tissue). 1) Chronic Effect: Higher fatty acid levels preexercise (several types of fatty acids see slides). 2, 1,5 1, 5 Myristic acid 14C Saturated Fatty Acid FDR=6.49E32 2) Acute Effect: Increased fatty acid oxidation and mobilization during exercise (placebo condition was linked to a late mobilization). Triglyceride Mobilization: corresponding with the increase in free fatty acids, glycerol was higher at baseline (indicative of extensive adipose triglyceride hydrolysis). 2, 1,5 1, 5 Myristic acid 14C Saturated Fatty Acid FDR=2.61E2 TG Hydrolysis FFAs + Glycerol with Slide 4

14 3) Ascorbic Acid Metabolism: supplementation appears to be affecting ascorbic acid both acutely and chronically. Chronic Differences: group has lower baseline levels of fructose and lower levels of threonic acid. Fructose is broken down into ascorbic acid which is further metabolized into threonic acid. This could be suggestive of higher ascorbic acid production but no differences in groups were detected at baseline. Least Square Mean Area Fructose FDR=1.12E5 Least Square Mean Area Threonic Acid FDR=1.46E98 Acute Differences: group has higher levels of ascorbic acid, an antioxidant, and lower levels of both fructose and threonic acid.
