“…However, studies about the effect of bicarbonate ingestion on metabolic response are often conflicting. A study conduct on horses by Schuback et al in 2002 reported no effect of sodium bicarbonate ingestion on metabolic response and duration of exercise [23]; contrariwise other study reported in athletes, show an improved performance in a way dose-dependent [24][25][26] and probably by increasing buffering capacity [27,28]. Alkalinizing agents, including sodium bicarbonate, have been proposed as ergogenic aids for their potential effect on providing enhanced extracellular buffer capacity.…”

Abstract:Purpose: This investigation examined the effects of Acqua Lete® bicarbonate calcic mineral water ingestion on blood lactate, glucose, and serum lactate dehydrogenase.Methods: 88 amateur male athletes underwent two experimental trials with modified Wingate test: the first was carried out without hydration (Test C), the second (Test H) with hydration following this scheme: 44 subjects (Group A) hydrated by a very low mineral content water and 44 subjects (Group B) hydrated by Acqua Lete ® . Measures of body temperature, [La -], glucose, total LDH and its isoenzyme pattern, were taken before (T0), during (T1-T5), and after exercise (T6-T7).Results: Blood lactate significantly increased after the session of exercises in both groups: after hydration and 30' of resting (T7) Group B returned a level of lactate lower than the Group A (2.2±0.2 vs 2.9±0.3mmol/L; p<0.001). In Test H, LDH activities after exercise did not change but serum LDH5 isoenzyme activity decreased by 0.9% in athletes in Group B compared to Group A (p< 0.05).Conclusions: All the athletes (Group B) hydrated pre-exercise with Acqua Lete® showed a significant decrease in blood lactate levels post-exercise and changes in LDH isoenzymatic pattern compared with athletes hydrated pre-exercise with a low mineral content water.

“…Lastly, β-carotene has been found to improve physical performance [ 254 ]. Studies have shown that β-carotene supplementation may lead to endurance strength improvement and injury risk prevention [ 3 , 150 ]. Similarly, a meta-analysis of nine studies including participants from both genders, with a total 190,545 candidates, emphasized that β-carotene leads to a significant enhancement in overall performance [ 29 ].…”

The aim of this systematic review is twofold: (i) to examine the effects of micronutrient intake on athletic performance and (ii) to determine the specific micronutrients, such as vitamins, minerals, and antioxidants, that offer the most significant enhancements in terms of athletic performance, with the goal of providing guidance to athletes and coaches in optimizing their nutritional strategies. The study conducted a systematic search of electronic databases (i.e., PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus) using keywords pertaining to micronutrients, athletic performance, and exercise. The search involved particular criteria of studies published in English between 1950 and 2023. The findings suggest that vitamins and minerals are crucial for an athlete’s health and physical performance, and no single micronutrient is more important than others. Micronutrients are necessary for optimal metabolic body’s functions such as energy production, muscle growth, and recovery, which are all important for sport performance. Meeting the daily intake requirement of micronutrients is essential for athletes, and while a balanced diet that includes healthy lean protein sources, whole grains, fruits, and vegetables is generally sufficient, athletes who are unable to meet their micronutrient needs due to malabsorption or specific deficiencies may benefit from taking multivitamin supplements. However, athletes should only take micronutrient supplements with the consultation of a specialized physician or nutritionist and avoid taking them without confirming a deficiency.

The Role of Oxidative, Inflammatory and Neuroendocrinological Systems During Exercise Stress in Athletes: Implications of Antioxidant Supplementation on Physiological Adaptation During Intensified Physical Training

During periods of intensified physical training, reactive oxygen species (ROS) release may exceed the protective capacity of the antioxidant system and lead to dysregulation within the inflammatory and neuroendocrinological systems. Consequently, the efficacy of exogenous antioxidant supplementation to maintain the oxidative balance in states of exercise stress has been widely investigated. The aim of this review was to (1) collate the findings of prior research on the effect of intensive physical training on oxidant-antioxidant balance; (2) summarise the influence of antioxidant supplementation on the reduction-oxidation signalling pathways involved in physiological adaptation; and (3) provide a synopsis on the interactions between the oxidative, inflammatory and neuroendocrinological response to exercise stimuli. Based on prior research, it is evident that ROS are an underlying aetiology in the adaptive process; however, the impact of antioxidant supplementation on physiological adaptation remains unclear. Equivocal results have been reported on the impact of antioxidant supplementation on exercise-induced gene expression. Further research is required to establish whether the interference of antioxidant supplementation consistently observed in animal-based and in vivo research extends to a practical sports setting. Moreover, the varied results reported within the literature may be due to the hormetic response of oxidative, inflammatory and neuroendocrinological systems to an exercise stimulus. The collective findings suggest that intensified physical training places substantial stress on the body, which can manifest as an adaptive or maladaptive physiological response. Additional research is required to determine the efficacy of antioxidant supplementation to minimise exercise-stress during intensive training and promote an adaptive state.

Effects of a Mineral Antioxidant Complex on Clinical Safety, Body Water, Lactate Response, and Aerobic Performance in Response to Exhaustive Exercise

Abstract: MAC supplementation had no impact on aerobic exercise performance and lactate response. Increases in TBW and ICW occurred after MAC consumption, but these changes appeared to have minimal physiological impact.
