You drink an "energy" drink before or during sport. You think you're doing well.
You don't know that you may be sabotaging yourself... because of an 8-letter word: insulin.
Sugar in "sports" drinks: the false friend that screws things up
Yes, sugar provides quick energy. But it also triggers an immediate metabolic reaction: the secretion of insulin secretion.
👉 Result:
-
Sugar is stored (often in fat if effort is light)
-
You feel a spike → then an energy crash
-
You don't burn fatsbecause insulin inhibits them
"Elevation of post-glucose insulin inhibits lipid oxidation and decreases utilization of endogenous energy stores." Horowitz JF et al., American Journal of Physiology-Endocrinology and Metabolism, 1997
⚠️ Why it's a real problem for athletes
medium
Most people do :
-
45 to 75 min of activity
-
moderate intensity
-
for pleasure or health
And there, no need for simple carbohydrates. Because the insulin released interrupts metabolic adaptation (weight loss, endurance, stable performance).
"In amateur athletes, consumption of sugar-sweetened beverages alters the metabolic benefits of training." Gillen JB et al., Journal of Physiology, 2012
The body is designed to adapt. Not to receive sugar every 20 minutes. The better you manage your hydration, the better you perform. And that means choosing what you put in your water bottle wisely.
