Effect of preexercise soup ingestion on water intake and fluid balance during exercise in the heat.

Purpose: To determine whether chicken noodle soup before exercise increases ad libitum water intake, fluid balance, and physical and cognitive performance compared with water. Methods: Nine trained men (age 25 ± 3 yr, VO2peak 54.2 ± 5.1 ml • kg-1 • min-1; M ± SD) performed cycle exercise in the heat (wet bulb globe temperature [...]

The effects of dehydration, moderate alcohol consumption, and rehydration on cognitive functions.

This study investigated the impact of mild-moderate dehydration on alcohol-induced deteriorations in cognitive functions. Sixteen healthy males participated in a single-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over design study involving 4 experimental trials (separated by ≥7 d). In each trial, participants were dehydrated by 2.5% body mass through exercise. After 1 h recovery in a thermo-neutral environment (22 ± 2 °C, 60-70% relative humidity) [...]
