Carbohydrates - fundamental nutrients, especially for the energetic role they play in our body. The term carbohydrates or carbohydrates therefore refers to a heterogeneous group of molecules involved in energy metabolism and in the structural function of eukaryotic cells. Introduced through the diet, carbohydrates are digested initially by salivary amylases in the buccal cavity (this explains the importance of correct chewing) and subsequently in the intestine by pancreatic amylase, dextrinase and disaccharidase. The simple sugars obtained are absorbed by the apical membrane of the enterocyte through passive diffusion systems, and facilitated transport, then released into the bloodstream from the basolateral membrane. The time with which 50 grams of a certain carbohydrate raise blood sugar levels, in relation to a standard, glucose or white bread, is called the glycemic index; this value related to the quantity of carbohydrates contained in a given food defines the concept of glycemic load. The choice of foods with a low or high glycemic index / load definitely affects the food quality of the diet in pathological, healthy individuals and athletes. Dwelling on the "nutrition of the" athlete, it is clear how the choice of the type of food and the type of carbohydrate can adapt to different needs and integrative perspectives.
- In the pre-competition phase, to saturate the muscle reserves of glycogen → carbohydrates with medium and low glycemic index, easy to digest.
- During endurance performance: to support performance and delay the onset of muscle fatigue → carbohydrates with a medium glycemic index in liquid or gel form.
- Immediately before the sprint or the explosion of strength: → carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, ready to be assimilated and consumed, naturally in liquid form.
- In the post work out: to enhance the anabolic capacity of the body → carbohydrates with a high glycemic index, to stimulate insulin secretion, combined with an amino acid source to improve protein synthesis and with medium glycemic index carbohydrates to restore muscle glycemic stocks.
The different needs have led to the formulation of products containing various forms of carbohydrates: from simple sugars of immediate absorption, to complex sugars such as maltodextrins, which can - depending on the formulation - adapt in the best way to the different integrative perspectives of the athlete.
Branched chain amino acids (L-Leucine, L-Isoleucine, L-Valine): essential amino acids, involved in the energetic and plastic functions of the organism, represent a valid support not only ergogenic to the athlete's diet. The importance of these three amino acids must essentially be:
- The absence of a hepatic metabolism, which makes them particularly bioavailable especially at the muscular level;
- To the important energetic action carried out thanks to the gluconeogenic and oxidative capacity, which is achieved above all in endurance sports;
- All "antiproteolytic and myoprotective action;
- To the competitive action against tryptophan, which translates into a reduction in the production of serotonin and the sensation of fatigue;
- All "buffering action.
Their requirement amounts to about 83 mg / kg / day, distributed in 40 mg / kg / day for leucine, 23 mg / kg / day for isoleucine and 20 mg / kg / day for valine, which rises up to double for endurance athletes, such as marathon runners and cyclists. This requirement can be easily achieved through a healthy diet, which provides the correct amount of protein. Supplementation, on the other hand, becomes necessary for endurance athletes and should be associated with that of vitamins of group B.
Vitamins of group B: the B vitamins, very present in products of animal origin, legumes and whole grains, are part of numerous biological reactions, and in particular those of the oxidative metabolism of the various nutrients, guaranteeing the body the realization of a correct catabolic phase and pro energetic.
Vitamin B1: also known as thiamine, it is activated following a dual phosphorylation process as TPP (thiamine pyrophosphate), and is part of the oxidative decarboxylation process of pyruvate, in the Krebs cycle (allowing the transition from α-ketoglutarate to Succinyl CoA) , and in the pentose phosphate cycle. It is therefore essential in the oxidative metabolism of carbohydrates.
Its requirement is about 0.4 / 0.8 mg for every 1000 kcal introduced.
Vitamin B2: also known as riboflavin, it reaches the liver through the bloodstream, linked to albumin, where it is transformed into FMN and FAD. These two prosthetic groups, essential for metabolism in general, are part of the oxidative decarboxylation process of pyruvate and in the krebs cycle, in the B-oxidation of fatty acids, in the oxidation of amino acids and in oxidative phosphorylation.
The recommended daily dose is 0.6mg for every 1000 kcal introduced with the diet.
Vitamin B6: also known as pyridoxine, it is transformed and phosphorylated in the liver into pyridoxal phosphate, an important coenzyme involved in numerous key reactions of amino acid metabolism (oxidative transamination and deamination), lipid (synthesis of sphingolipids) and glucose. Its daily requirement is around 1 / 1.5 mg, but even in this case the episodes of deficiency are very rare.
Nicotinamide: ammidedell "nicotinic acid which together with nicotinic acid represents vitamin B3 or PP. This vitamin is part of the constitution of two very important coenzymes, known as NAD and NADP, involved in numerous metabolic reactions, both oxidative and non-oxidative. Catabolic, anabolic processes, cell growth, differentiation and maintenance of cellular function are just some of the fields of activity of this vitamin.
Vitamin B3 deficiencies, very rare, give rise to a pathological condition known as pellagra characterized by dermatitis, mental and cognitive disorders. For men in adulthood, the LARNs recommend an intake of about 20mg / day, considering that doses above 3000mg can cause a classic gastrointestinal symptomatology accompanied by hepatotoxicity.
Pantothenic acid: also known as vitamin B5, it is part of the synthesis of Coenzyme A (ATP + VitB5 + Cys), which plays a key role in all the reactions in which the transfer of an acyl group takes place (oxidative decarboxylation of pyruvate, α-ketoglutarate, oxidation of fatty acids). It therefore plays a central role in both glucose and lipid metabolism. The recommended daily dose ranges from 4 to 7 mg, however, given the presence of this vitamin in many foods (mainly whole grains), deficiencies are found only in severe cases of malnutrition.
Product features - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit
This energy supplement moves away from classic commercialized drinks, with the addition of caffeine and other stimulants. In fact, it tries to provide the athlete with a more solid and lasting metabolic support. The formulation with carbohydrates with various glycemic index guarantees energy coverage in the short and medium term, while the presence of branched chain amino acids supports the muscle in the hardest phases of the performance, reducing the catabolic effect and the feeling of fatigue. The B vitamins close the circle, optimizing the oxidative process and the consequent energy production.
Of course, the supplement in question is not proposed to satisfy all the energy and metabolic demand that performance requires, therefore the dosages of the various principles, albeit reduced, make sense from the point of view of a precompetitive ergogenic aid.
Method of use recommended by the company - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit
For a quick and gradual energy supply during prolonged physical exercise, take before or during exertion. It is easy to use: it can be drunk as it is or dissolved in a glass of water or other liquid. The ration of Enervitene Sport Gel for an effective energy supply during a prolonged effort is 4 minipacks.
Method of use in sports practice - Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit
As advised by the company, the consumption of this supplement should be limited to the phases immediately preceding or concurrent with the competition. The number of portions to be consumed should instead be calculated based on the type and duration of the service. For performances lasting about 2 hours, 2 minipacks should be sufficient to satisfy the athlete's energy demand. Of course, also in this case it is very important to consider the type of diet, and the metabolic-nutritional conditions with which the athlete reaches performance, in order to program effective supplementary protocols.
Side Effects Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit
Excessive consumption could cause nausea, cramps, abdominal pain, diarrhea and vomiting.
Precautions for use Enervitene Sport Gel - Enervit
The product is contraindicated in cases of renal or hepatic pathology, cardiovascular disease and / or hypertension, during pregnancy, during lactation and under 14 years.
In case of prolonged use (over 6/8 weeks) the doctor's opinion is necessary.
