TONIC FOR TIREDNESS
A swig of flat cola could pep up your performance. Sports nutritionists from Birmingham University have found that two cups of flat cola can greatly improve endurance during long-distance events.
For the study, cyclists were given three different drinks – glucose, glucose mixed with caffeine, or plain water – before being put through exercise. They found combining caffeine with glucose meant 26%more sugar was absorbed into the body, translating into a ten-minute time gain.
