and during as needed

Caffeine

Known to reduce the rate of perceivedexertion forEndurance Athletes

D

oherty and Smith (2005) found nearly a 6%reduction in RPE during constant rate exercisedespite the mode, intensity or duration

The same study also showed an 11% increase inperformance compared to the placebo group

The group with the higher VO2 max experienced thelargest reduction in RPE during exercise

x Possibly because of an increased release of adrenaline

exercise: a meta-analysis. Scandinavian Journal of Medicine & Science in Sports, 15(2), 69-78.


11/22

Caffeine Thought to alter metabolic factors that enhance exercise

metabolism and substrate availability such as increase fatoxidation and decreased carbohydrate utilization According to research done by Graham (2000) Subjects were given either 6mg/kg of caffeine or a

placebo and then performed a 1 hr long cycle ergometertest at 70% max VO2

Results:x caffeine stimulated the sympathetic nervous system but

did not alter the carbohydrate or fat metabolism in themonitored working leg.

x Other tissues such as the liver, adipose, and resting

muscle tissue were responsible for the changes incirculating potassium, fatty acids, glucose and lactate.

Carbohydrate

Ingestion of exogenous CHO can delay

fatigue

13/22

Increases fluid retention

Sodium beverage with CHO, potassium,

magnesium, and calcium help fluidretention after exercise

Electrolyte/CHO beverage increase timeto fatigue by %33.

Sports drinks cannot preventhypornatremia because have less than135mmol/L

Beverage needs 500-700mg/L of sodium


14/22

Involved in RBC production

RBC transport oxygen to cells

Helps build and repair muscle cells on adaily basis

A B12 deficiency will cause macrocytic

anemia and pernicious anemia 50% bioavailability from animal products

Need 2.4 micrograms/day


15/22

Speculation that need more B12 tocombat increased levels due to

strenuous exercise Hyperhomocysteinemia is associated

with increased risk of CVD andneurodegenerative diseases

Hyperhomocysteinemia is alsoassociated with low folate/B12 status

Homocysteine levels increase duringendurance exercise


16/22

Exercise decreases the half life of RBC andincreases the turnover rate

It is suggested that active individuals mayneed more B12 because it is thoughtexercise increases the loss of the vitamin

Marathoners and individuals who took partin strenuous swimming were shown to haveincreased levels of homocysteine in theblood

It was shown that vitamin B12 keepshomocysteine levels in the blood low

Possible Negative Side Effects

of the Power Pouch Caffeine when consumed in large

amounts (>600mgs per day) can cause

jitters, increased heart-rate, digestivecomplications, mood-swings, trouble

sleeping

The pouches that our product is

wrapped in and the fiberglass may lead

to gum loss


19/22

Warnings

Do not consume more than 12 pouches

in a single day because of the increased

risk of caffeine overdose Choking hazard-do not swallow pouch

Using the Power Pouch without proper

dental hygiene may cause: Dental caries

Gingivitis
