Effect of Resveratrol-based Polyphenol Supplementation on Exercise-Induced Muscle Damage
Why was this study done?
It is thought that fatigue in athletes may be brought on by many factors, but dehydration (and loss of plasma volume) may be one of the most important of these. This study was designed to help understand the importance of rehydration formulas and different rehydration strategies in the maintenance of plasma volume.
What did the study find?
The study discovered that the composition of a rehydration formula was more important to returning plasma volume to normal than the degree of dehydration or how quickly a drink was consumed.
