Honey Aids Athletic Performance

Full research details available at www.honey.com

Pre-Exercise – Studies at the University ofMemphis Exercise and Sports Nutrition Laboratoryfound that honey may be one of the most effectiveforms of carbohydrate to ingest just prior to exercise.Honey eaten before exercise is digested easily andreleased into the system at a steady rate for use by the body.

During Exercise – Research has shown thatusing honey as a carbohydrate source while exercising significantly improved performanceduring endurance cycling trials. This small studyfound that honey produced a statistically significantreduction in the time to finish the time trial and a significant increase in the athletes’ average power when compared to a placebo. In these trials,honey performed as well as glucose, the mostcommon carbohydrate supplement.

Post-Exercise – Research has also shown that honey may be an optimal source of carbohydrate

to ingest along with post-workout protein supplements. In

addition to promoting muscle recuperation and glycogen restoration,

honey-protein combinations sustain favorable blood sugar

concentrations after training that would helppromote recovery.
