Metabolic adaptation

24-h carbohydrate oxidation was significantly elevated on exercise days compared with a nonexercise control day.

Exercise increases carbohydrate oxidation, which may be beneficial for energy management.

StrongSupportsmedium confidence
24-h carbohydrate oxidation was significantly elevated on the exercise days (BK = 370 +/- 18 g x d(-1), WTS = 349 +/- 23 g x d(-1), P > 0.05) compared with Con (249 +/- 29 g x d(-1), P = 0.04).
