Effect of Nutrient Delivery Pattern on Biological Rhythms in Human Skeletal Muscle
Bu çalışma, besinlerin farklı düzenlerde (sürekli ya da toplu/bolus şeklinde) verilmesinin insan iskelet kasındaki biyolojik ritimler (biological rhythms) üzerindeki etkisini incelemiştir. Düzenli uyku düzenine sahip, vücut kitle indeksi 19-30 arasında olan sağlıklı yetişkinler katılabilmiştir. Çalışma faz uygulanmayan bir araştırma olarak yürütülmüş ve tamamlanmıştır.

Exclusion Criteria: * Are taking regular medication (also non-prescribed) or food supplements (e.g vitamins, minerals, fish oil, antioxidant tablets) from which it is not possible to refrain, known to influence: Sleep/alertness/the circadian timing system (e.g beta-blockers, barbituates, antidepressants, benzodiazepines, melatonin, ritalin, modafinil, soporifics, St John's Wort), any of the metabolic functions (e.g. affecting thyroid, kidney, liver or gastrointestinal function) * Any of the inflammatory markers (e.g. aspirin, ibuprofen, antiobiotics, hay fever medication, medication for sore throats and colds) * And/or any of the endothelial markers (e.g. ACE inhibitors and angiotensin (receptor) blockers, diuretics, Beta-blockers, anti-thrombosis medication), * Have a history of any circadian or sleep disorder or metabolic, cardiovascular or chronic infectious / inflammatory disease as confirmed by the GP or the pre-study questionnaires (e.g. a Pittsburgh Sleep Quality Index \> 5 will result in exclusion), * Have a history of psychiatric or neurological disease or drug and alcohol abuse, * Have donated over 400 ml of blood in the three months preceding the study, * Have participated in shift work or have travelled across more than two time zones within three weeks of the study, * Do not keep a regular sleep-wake cycle, * Do not refrain from alcohol, caffeine containing drinks (e.g. coffee, coke, tea, redbull), heavy exercise and certain foods (e.g. those high in fat and green vegetables) TWO days before and during the laboratory session, * Normally consume more than 4 cups of caffeinated beverages (e.g. tea, coffee, cola) daily * Smokers
