Abstract
A method for regulating glucose release, promoting glycogen conservation, and/or glycogen synthesis includes orally administering an effective amount of a nutritional composition comprising fast and slow absorbing carbohydrates in combination with an insulinomimetic compound to provide a steady release of glucose from the gastrointestinal tract.
Claims20
A method for at least one of regulating release of glucose, promoting glycogen conservation, and glycogen synthesis, comprising:
- orally administering to an individual, prior to or during exercise or physical activity, an effective amount of a nutritional composition including:
- a carbohydrate source comprising a fast absorbing carbohydrate and a slow absorbing carbohydrate;
- and
- an insulinomimetic compound,
- wherein a weight ratio of the carbohydrate source to the insulinomimetic compound is about 150:1 by weight.
A method for at least one of regulating release of glucose, promoting glycogen conservation, and glycogen synthesis, comprising:
- orally administering to an individual, prior to or during exercise or physical activity, an effective amount of a nutritional composition including:
- a carbohydrate source comprising a fast absorbing carbohydrate and a slow absorbing carbohydrate, the fast and slow carbohydrates present in a ratio of 2:1 based on total weight of the carbohydrate source;
- and
- an insulinomimetic compound,
- wherein a weight ratio of the carbohydrate source to the insulinomimetic compound is about 150:1 by weight.
A method for at least one of regulating release of glucose, promoting glycogen conservation, and glycogen synthesis, comprising:
- orally administering to an individual, prior to or during in exercise or physical activity an effective amount of a nutritional composition including:
- a carbohydrate source comprising a fast absorbing carbohydrate and a slow absorbing carbohydrate, the fast and slow carbohydrates present in a ratio of 2:1 based on total weight of the carbohydrate source;
- an insulinomimetic compound;
- and
- at least one free amino acid selected from the group consisting of histidine, methionine, phenylalanine, lysine, threonine, hydrochloride salts of histidine, methionine, phenylalanine, lysine, and threonine, isoleucine, leucine, valine, nitrate salts of isoleucine, leucine, and valine, alpha amino-N-butyrate salts of isoleucine, leucine, and valine, and combinations thereof,
- wherein a weight ratio of the carbohydrate source to the insulinomimetic compound is about 150:1 by weight.
