IN THE SPOTLIGHT: LEADERS IN SCIENCE

Unit Nutrition interviews Dr. Louise Burke, OAM to take a deep dive into carb-rinsing and sports nutrition over the years, and what’s to come in the future.

Question 4: How has the discovery of carbohydrate rinsing changed the field of race nutrition?

" It has led us to this understanding of regular, consistent intake of carbohydrate, which didn't actually have to be consumed, there’s no disadvantage to swallowing it in most cases, but it did offer them some advantages in tricky situations where you might have an athlete who’s not feeling that good in the stomach, they’ve been consuming things during the race and they are starting to feel a bit queasy and rather than just not having anything for a period until they start to feel better again, being able to just swill it around your mouth and spit it out allows you to get the benefits from the brain perspective, without having to threaten the gut’s discomfort until you can then join it up."
