TL;DR: Evidence supports the strategic use of caffeine to sustain performance in the latter stages of racing, particularly when sleep deprivation may compromise athlete safety, and evidence in support of ketogenic diets and/or ketone esters to improve ultra-marathon performance is lacking.

TL;DR: It is suggested that BRJ improves physiological function and exercise performance, but not cognitive function, at simulated moderate and very-high altitude.

TL;DR: The findings suggest that BRJ might be ergogenic during shorter distance TTs which allow for a high work rate, but not during longerdistance TTs, completed at a lower work rate.

TL;DR: Findings suggests that a high nitrate dose in the form of a BRJ supplement may improve running performance in individuals with a range of aerobic fitness levels conducting moderate and high-intensity exercise in a normobaric hypoxic environment.

TL;DR: Mouth rinsing with CHO solutions did not impact 1-hour cycling performance in the postprandial period and in the absence of fluid intake, and there is scope for further research to explore the activation regions of the brain and whether they are receptive to CHO dose.
