The effects of caffeine ingestion on exercise high carbohydrate meals with different glycemic indices on blood leukocyte redistribution, IL-6, and hormonal responses during a subsequent prolonged exercise

Article Abstract:

The aim of the study is to determine whether the mobilization of total leukocytes and leukocyte subsets and the response of plasma stress hormones and interleukin-6 during subsequent endurance exercise are affected by the glycemic index of a high CHO pre-exercise meal. The GI of a pre-exercise meal influences leukocyte trafficking and plasma glucose but has limited effects on circulating stress hormone and cytokine responses to exercise.

Influence of carbohydrate and age on lymphocyte function following a marathon

Article Abstract:

The purpose of this study was to measure mitogen-induced lymphocyte proliferation and in vitro cytokine production in response to a marathon race in younger and older runners consuming either a carbohydrate or placebo beverage. Henson and coworkers concluded PHA-induced lymphocyte proliferation and cytokine production decreased significantly following a marathon, which is discussed.
