The Effect of a Vegan Alginate Product on Athletes Recovery and Performance

The feeding strategies during recovery are essential to optimize a subsequent performance. Carbohydrate is a major fuel source during exercise as it has been shown to maintain high rates of carbohydrate oxidation. Protein intake in combination with carbohydrate have been shown to increase Amino acid bioavailability and may alter physiologic responses during exercise, which may be relevant to endurance performance. The goal of this study is to assess the effect of a new developed vegan product on athletes recovery and subsequent performance.
