IMPACT OF BEVERAGE ACCEPTABILITY ON FLUID INTAKE DURING EXERCISE
These two studies investigated the impact of beverage acceptability on voluntary fluid intake during exercise and the subsequent impact of exercise on the perception and liking of beverages. In Experiment 1, 49 triathletes and runners first tasted an array of 10 commercially available flavors of a 6% carbohydrate-electrolyte drink (CE) and water (W) to determine [...]
HEAT WAVES: THEIR IMPACT ON THE HEALTH OF ELDERS
A trend toward more hot and humid summers in the United States raises concern for the health of our elderly population. Older adults are more vulnerable to heat illness than younger people because of dysfunctional thermoregulatory mechanisms, chronic dehydration, medications, and diseases involving the systems that regulate body temperature. Heat exhaustion, if untreated, will lead [...]
THE EFFECT OF BEVERAGE CARBONATION ON SENSORY RESPONSES AND VOLUNTARY FLUID INTAKE FOLLOWING EXERCISE
The effects of carbonated beverages on sensory acceptability and voluntary fluid intake after exercise were examined. The level of carbonation in a 6% carbohydrate (CHO) electrolyte drink was systematically varied (0, 1.1, 2.3, and 3.0 volumes of CO2), and its impact was assessed in 52 adults following 30 min of exercise. The perception of carbonation [...]
ESTIMATION OF TOTAL BODY WATER BY BIOELECTRICAL IMPEDANCE ANALYSIS.
Total body water (TBW) measured by bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) was directly compared with deuterium-isotope dilution in a total of 58 subjects. First, sex-specific and group equations were developed by multiple regression analysis in (10 each) obese and nonobese men and women. Height/resistive impedance was the most significant variable used to predict deuterium-dilution space (D2O-TBW) [...]
DO CHILDREN HAVE AN ADEQUATE FLUID INTAKE? WATER BALANCE STUDIES CARRIED OUT AT HOME.
In 21 healthy children aged 6-11 years water balance studies were performed for 3 days at home. Water intake was assessed from dietary records based on the precise weighing method and water loss was calculated from repeated measurements of body weight and urine collection. Mean values (+/- SD) of all parameters of water balance are [...]

IS THE IMPEDANCE INDEX (HT2/R) SIGNIFICANT IN PREDICTING TOTAL BODY WATER?
We investigated the general utility of bioelectrical impedance analysis (BIA) and the implications of BIA theory in populations of various ages from infancy to adulthood by developing a single impedance equation. Four subject data sets representing 62 adults, 37 prepubertal children, 44 preschool children, and 32 premature low-birth-weight neonates were combined. Subjects were randomly divided [...]
