Metabolic adaptation
Fat feeding elevated plasma free fatty acids (FFA) and lowered respiratory exchange ratio (RER) during steady-state exercise.
High-fat meals may enhance fat metabolism during exercise.
StrongSupportsmedium confidence
Fat feeding elevated plasma [FFA] (1.3 ±0.2 vs 0.2 ±0.1 vs 0.1 ±0.1 mM; P<0.001) and lowered RER (0.94 ±0.01 vs 0.97 ±0.01 vs 0.98 ±0.01; P<0.01 for HIFAT, CHO and NA) throughout SS.
