High Altitude and Exogenous Carbohydrate Oxidation
common.study.values.description
“High Altitude and Exogenous Carbohydrate Oxidation”
Recent studies have reported that oxidation of exogenous carbohydrate is reduced under acute hypobaric hypoxic (high altitude; HA) conditions compared to normoxia (sea level; SL) in native lowlanders. However, the mechanisms by which HA suppresses exogenous carbohydrate oxidation are not known. This study will seek to confirm that acute HA exposure decreases exogenous carbohydrate oxidation during steady-state aerobic exercise compared to SL, and explore if the mechanism inhibiting plasma glucose uptake is insulin dependent or independent.
