Hydroxycitric acid (HCA) is not interfere fat oxidation during moderate intensity exercise and reduce fat accumulation in the body. Depleted glycogen by exhausted exercise caused fatigue that reduced exercise performance in the continuos day or match. lf considering the effect of HCA, even so, ingestion after exhaustive exercise. Therefore, 500 mg of HCA was intubated to the Sprague-Dawley male rats that have exercise trained for 3-week and exercise on the treadmill until exhaustive. Liver and muscle (soleus, gastrocnemius and quadriceps) glycogen and blood glucose, lactate, and FFA were analyzed. Glycogen contents were reduced after exhaustive exercise then increased 24-h of recovery periods without HCA effect. Blood profiles were not affected by HCA either. These result suggested that HCA effect was showed only during exercise in rats. |
