ABSTRACT

This study examined the effect of honey supplementation on exercise performance and biochemical markers in comparison to plain water and sports drink in the heat. Ten recreational athletes (Age: 22.2 ± 2.0 years, weight: 65.7 ± 5.3 kg; height: 170.4 ± 3.5 cm; VO2max: 51.5 ± 3.7 mL.kg−1.min−1) participated in this study. Participants ran at 70% of their VO2max for 1 h in a pre-load phase (Run-1), followed by a rehydration phase for 2 h and then a 20 min self-paced time trial (Run-2). After Run-1, participants drank either Acacia honey, sports drink or plain water with an amount equivalent to 150% of body weight loss. Subsequently, the participants performed the 20 min self-paced time trial. Acacia honey elicited an improved running time trial performance with a significantly (p<0.05) longer distance ran compared to plain water trial, but it was not different from the sports drink trial. In addition, there was no significant difference in running performance between sports drink and plain water trials. Plasma glucose, insulin and free fatty acids were significantly (p<0.05) higher in H and sports drink compared to the W trial during the rehydration phase. There were no significant differences in body weight changes, oxygen uptake, heart rate, rate of perceived exertion, tympanic temperature, plasma volume changes, plasma cortisol, urine osmolality, volume, and specific gravity among the three trials. Thus, Acacia honey can be recommended to be used as a rehydration drink for individuals who train and compete in the heat.

Keywords: Acacia honey; heat; rehydration; running performance; urine osmolality

 

ABSTRAK

Penyelidikan ini mengkaji kesan madu sebagai diet tambahan terhadap prestasi senaman dan penanda biokimia berbanding dengan air kosong dan minuman sukan dalam persekitaran panas. Sepuluh atlet rekreasi (Umur: 22.2 ± 2.0 tahun; berat: 65.7 ± 5.3 kg; ketinggian: 170.4 ± 3.5 sm; VO2max: 51.5 ± 3.7 mL.kg−1.min−1) mengambil bahagian dalam kajian ini. Para peserta berlari pada 70% VO2max mereka selama 1 jam dalam fasa pra-muat (Larian-1), diikuti dengan fasa rehidrasi selama 2 jam dan kemudian larian rentak-sendiri selama 20 min (Larian-2). Selepas Larian-1, peserta meminum madu Acacia, minuman sukan atau air kosong dengan jumlah yang setara dengan 150% penurunan berat badan. Selepas itu, para peserta melakukan percubaan masa rentak-sendiri selama 20 min. Madu Acacia menghasilkan prestasi larian percubaan masa yang lebih baik dan jarak yang lebih jauh secara signifikan (p<0.05) berbanding dengan percubaan air kosong. Namun, tidak ada perbezaan yang signifikan dalam prestasi larian antara percubaan minuman sukan dan air kosong. Glukosa, insulin dan asid lemak bebas plasma dalam percubaan madu Acacia dan minuman sukan adalah lebih tinggi secara signifikan (p<0.05) berbanding dengan percubaan air kosong ketika fasa rehidrasi. Tidak ada perbezaan yang signifikan dalam perubahan berat badan, pengambilan oksigen, denyutan jantung, kadar persepsi keletihan, suhu timpanik, perubahan isi padu plasma, kortisol plasma, keosmololan, isi padu dan nilai graviti khusus air kencing antara ketiga-tiga percubaan. Madu Acacia menghasilkan prestasi percubaan masa yang lebih baik berbanding dengan percubaan air tetapi tidak berbeza dengan minuman sukan. Justeru, madu Acacia mungkin berpotensi digunakan sebagai minuman rehidrasi bagi individu yang berlatih dan bertanding dalam persekitaran panas.

Kata kunci: Haba; madu Acacia; osmolaliti air kencing; prestasi larian; rehidrasi
