A meta-analysis of the effects of glycerol-induced hyperhydration on fluid retention and endurance performance.

چکیده
The authors determined, through a meta-analytic approach, whether glycerol-induced hyperhydration (GIH) enhances fluid retention and increases endurance performance (EP) significantly more than water-induced hyperhydration (WIH). Collectively, studies administered 23.9 +/- 2.7 mL of fluid/kg body weight (BW) with 1.1 +/- 0.2 g glycerol/kg BW, and hyperhydration was measured 136 +/- 15 min after its onset. Compared with WIH, GIH increased fluid retention by 7.7 +/- 2.8 mL/kg BW (P < 0.01; pooled effect size [PES]: 1.64 +/- 0.80, P < 0.01, N = 14). The use of GIH was associated with an improvement in EP of 2.62% +/- 1.60% (P = 0.047; PES: 0.35 +/- 0.13, P = 0.014, N = 4). Unarguably, GIH significantly enhances fluid retention better than WIH. Because of the dearth of data, the effect of GIH on EP must be further investigated before more definitive conclusions can be drawn as to its ergogenic property.

Review of the effects of glycerol-containing hyperhydration solutions on gastric emptying and intestinal absorption in humans and in rats.
Glycerol-induced hyperhydration (GIH) has been shown to improve fluid retention and endurance performance compared with water-induced hyperhydration. The goal of this article is to report on what is known and unknown about how glycerol-containing hyperhydration solutions (GCHSs) are processed at the stomach and intestine level, propose strategies to improve the efficacy of GIH, and provide rese...

متن کاملGlycerol hyperhydration: physiological responses during cold-air exposure.
Hypohydration occurs during cold-air exposure (CAE) through combined effects of reduced fluid intake and increased fluid losses. Because hypohydration is associated with reduced physical performance, strategies for maintaining hydration during CAE are important. Glycerol ingestion (GI) can induce hyperhydration in hot and temperate environments, resulting in greater fluid retention compared wit...

UNLABELLED BACKGROUND Hypohydration and hyperthermia are factors that may contribute to fatigue and impairment of endurance performance. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effectiveness of combining glycerol hyperhydration and an established precooling technique on cycling time trial performance in hot environmental conditions. METHODS Twelve well-trained male cyclists perfor...
متن کاملWater-induced hyperhydration increases total body water to a greater extent than glycerol-induced hyperhydration: a case study of a trained triathlete.
Glycerol-induced hyperhydration (GIH) prior to endurance exercise is a strategy that is increasingly used by athletes. Compared with water-induced hyperhydration (WIH), GIH has been shown to reduce diuresis, thereby increasing total body water (TBW). It has never been demonstrated that WIH proved to be more efficient than GIH for increasing TBW. Therefore, we report the case of a trained triath...
