respiration to produce ATP. ATP is then broken down to provide energy for everyday activities such as walking‚ or talking. Excess glucose is converted into glycogen and stored in the liver and muscle tissue that can then act as an instant energy source when needed. It is stored in the cells in the form of granules in the cytoplasm. Glycogen is a polysaccharide (polymer) which alpha glucose is stored as. A polysaccharide is a long chain of monosaccharaides joined together by glysocidic bonds. Glysocidic

The jury’s still out on whether or not you need to supplement L-Carnitine. Glucuronolactone - C6H8O6 It is placed in energy drinks because it is believed to help prevent glycogen depletion by preventing other substances from depleting glycogen supplies in the muscles. Red Bull Energy Drink Taurin- C2H7NO3S Taurine is an amino acid that is naturally produced by the human body. However‚ the version found in energy drinks is manufactured. It helps regulate

The Effect of Caffeine on Athletes during Endurance Sports Caffeine is a mild stimulant that is found naturally in at least 63 plant species. Caffeine can be found in the leaves‚ stems‚ seeds‚ and roots of these various plants. It is also part of the methylxanthine family. Caffeine consists of a xanthine molecule with three methyl groups attached to it (Wikipedia). Caffeine can be found in many products like sodas‚ tea‚ and coffee‚ but it also occurs in several other products such as prescription

Discuss and compare the relevance to the three energy systems for the sport of your choice‚ explain the details of each system? The body has only one unsuitable form of energy‚ this is known as ATP. ATP releases energy when broken down and is essential to the flow of energy to living cells. It can be re synthesized through a possible three energy systems; ATP-PC system‚ the glycolytic Lactic Acid system and the aerobic system.

is because the low levels of the insulin in the body causes the kidneys to shed an excessive amount of sodium. Moreover‚ the carbs in the bodies are stored in the form of glycogen. The glycogen binds water molecules to the liver and muscles. When the level of the carbohydrates reduces in the blood stream‚ the amount of glycogen automatically reduces‚ bringing the level of water down with it. The initial reduction in the intake of the carbohydrates leads the
