Resumen
TORO-ROMAN, Víctor et al. Effects of honey-rich energy drink intake on glucose, insulin, triglycerides and total protein in healthy young people. Nutr. Hosp. [online]. 2022, vol.39, n.5, pp.1093-1100. Epub 19-Dic-2022. ISSN 1699-5198. https://dx.doi.org/10.20960/nh.04001.
Introduction:
energy drinks have become more popular in different population groups.
Aims:
the research aimed to study the effect of the intake of a honey-rich energy drink (BeeBad EnegyDrink®, Parodi Group, Italy) and a popular energy drink with free sugars on insulin, glycemia, total protein and triglycerides.
Material and methods:
fifteen male students participated in the study (20.85 ± 2.67 years). Two separate evaluations were performed on three days. Blood samples were obtained before ingesting the energy drink in a fasting state, 30 minutes, 60 minutes and 120 minutes after ingesting the drinks. On the first day participants ingested the honey-rich energy drink (BeeBad EnegyDrink®, Parodi Group, Italy) while on the second day participants ingested the energy drink with free sugars.
Results:
there were significant differences in glucose and insulin over time (p < 0.01). Regarding the differences between energy drinks, there were differences in insulin values, being lower after taking the honey-rich energy drink (p < 0.05). In addition, the increase in glucose and insulin at 30 minutes was lower after ingesting the honey-rich energy drink.
Conclusions:
ingestion of honey-rich energy drink produces lower elevations of insulin and glucose compared to a popular energy drink with free sugar in healthy subjects. Based on the results, honey-rich energy drinks could be an alternative to conventional energy drinks.
