The composition of
the preexercise food intake is known to affect substrate utilization
during exercise and thus can affect long-term changes in body weight
and composition. These parameters were measured in male rats exercised
2 h daily over 5 wk, either in the fasting state or 1 h after
they ingested a meal enriched with glucose (Glc), whole milk
protein (WMP), or
-lactalbumin-enriched whey protein (CP
L).
Compared with fasting, the Glc meal increased glucose oxidation and
decreased lipid oxidation during and after exercise. In contrast, the
WMP and CP
L meals preserved lipid oxidation and increased protein
oxidation, the CP
L meal increasing protein oxidation more than the
WMP meal. At the end of the study, body weight was larger in the WMP-,
Glc-, and CP
L-fed rats than in the fasted ones. This resulted from
an increased fat mass in the WMP and Glc rats and to an increased lean
body mass, particularly muscles, in the CP
L rats. We conclude that
the potential of the CP
L meal to preserve lipid oxidation and to
rapidly deliver amino acids for use during exercise improved the
efficiency of exercise training to decrease adiposity.
