conclusions these findings indicate that rehydration with honey drink improves running performance and glucose metabolism compared to plain water in the heat. thus, honey drink can be recommended for rehydration purpose for athletes who compete in the heat. results running distance in run-2 covered by the subjects in the honey drink hd trial (3420 ± 350 m) was significantly (p < 0.01) longer co...

BACKGROUND Separately, chronic alcohol ingestion and HIV-1 infection are associated with severe skeletal muscle derangements, including atrophy and wasting, weakness, and fatigue. One prospective cohort study reported that 41% of HIV-infected patients met the criteria for alcoholism, however; few reports exist on the co-morbid effects of these two disease processes on skeletal muscle homeostasi...

Eight private pilots (four men, four women) were trained to perform on a twodimensional tracking task (joystick control of a localizer/glideslope instrument) and to respond as quickly as possible to the onset of a red pinlight, appended to the tracking instrument, by depressing a button on the joystick. Tracking and reaction time scores were obtained under both static (stationary) and dynamic c...

This book is a collection of the papers given at a symposium on alcohol metabolism held in Detroit, Michigan, on April 11 and 12, 1968. For students of the effects of ethanol on metabolism and on hepatic ultrastructure this is an excellent source of the data on which the various theories are based. It is not a good source for those interested in the relation of ethanol to diseases seen in man. ...

Alcoholics suffer from immune dysfunction that can impede vaccine efficacy. If ethanol (EtOH)-induced immune impairment is in part a result of direct exposure of immune cells to EtOH, then reduced levels of exposure could result in less immune dysfunction. As alcohol ingestion results in lower alcohol levels in skin than blood, we hypothesized that the skin immune network may be relatively pres...
