Protein added to a sports drink improves fluid retention
Article Abstract:
An investigation on 13 experienced endurance athletes aged between 20 to 28 years was done to determine the influence of the addition of protein to a carbohydrate based sports drink (CP) in comparison with only carbohydrate beverage (CHO) and water (WA) following exercise-induced dehydration on fluid retention. It was shown that the fluid retention for the CP was 15% more as compared to CHO and 40 % in comparison with WA and that water ingestion resulted in serum dilution and only 53% fluid retention.

Increased caloric intake soon after exercise in cold water
Article Abstract:
The acute effect of cold-water temperature on post-exercise energy intake for an hour is examined. Energy expenditure was determined using indirect calorimetry before, during, and after each condition and after the exercise, the subjects had free access to a standard assortment of food items of known calorific value.
