- a. Administering an amount of a supplement containing one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of pentose carbohydrates and derivatives thereof in conjunction with said exercise;
- b. Wherein said supplement is administered as a dose at one or more times selected from the group of times consisting of prior to, during and after exercise.
A method of improving cardiovascular parameters of an exercise during and following exercise comprising steps of:
- a. Administering an amount of a supplement containing one or more compounds selected from the group consisting of pentose carbohydrates and derivatives thereof in conjunction with said exercise wherein a hypoxic condition exists in the exerciser;
- b. Wherein said supplement is administered as a dose at one or more times selected from the group of times consisting of prior to, during and after exercise;
- and
- c. Wherein the administration amount and timing of administration of said supplement is such that it improves one or more cardiovascular parameters selected from heart rate, blood pressure and tissue oxygen delivery.
