By: Body Glove SURGE “What was surprising to us was the lack of effect seen with 5-Hour Energy, especially since previous studies have shown that caffeine consumed alone improves exercise performance and mental focus,” said Dr. John Seifert, Associate Professor of Health and Human Performance. “The results indicate that the combination of carbohydrate and protein with caffeine, as seen in Body Glove SURGE, provides greater endurance and faster reaction time.” In this study, 14 recreational cyclists exercised for a total of 120 minutes while ingesting either 5-Hour Energy (caffeine, taurine, niacin shot), Body Glove SURGE (caffeine, protein, carbohydrate) “The study was designed to simulate real world conditions,” The results of the study also confirmed other studies reporting the positive benefits of caffeine in reducing brain and muscle fatigue are enhanced when it is combined with small amounts of carbohydrate and protein.
