Abstract

This study investigated the effectiveness of sodium-enriched Acacia honey drink as a post-exercise recovery aid on physiological parameters in the hot and humid environment (31C 70 relative humidity). Ten male recreational athletes (age: 21.8 1.4 years VO2max: 51.5 4.1 mL.kg-. min-) participated in this randomized cross-over study. In running trial before the rehydration phase (Run-) participants were required to run on a treadmill at 65 VO2max (7.7 0.75 km.h-) in the heat for 60 min. Participants had a fluid replacement with either plain water (W) Acacia honey drink (H) or sodium-enriched Acacia honey drink (HS) with an amount equivalent to 150 of body weight loss in three boluses (60 50 and 40 respectively) immediately at 0 min 30 min and 60 min during two-hour rehydration phase. Blood and urine samples were collected and two-way repeated measure ANOVA was used for statistical analysis. Participants body weight in W H and HS trials dropped after running for 60 min. Plasma volume changes showed significant reductions with W: 7.2 3.4 (p 0.05) H: 6.6 3.4 (p 0.05) and HS: 6.6 4.2 (p 0.001) at the end of the run. During the rehydration phase there were significantly (p 0.05) higher levels of plasma glucose plasma insulin serum osmolality and urine osmolality in H and HS compared to W. Both H and HS drinks can be recommended as a recovery aid.
