Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Two daily high glycemic index meals (breakfast and lunch). Participants are consuming corn flake cereal, whole milk, sports drink (high carbohydrate, water, and electrolytes replenisher), white bread, and margarine for the high glycemic index meal (glycemic index = 79). All Bran cereal, fat-free strawberry yogurt, grape juice, multi-grain bread, margarine, and apple are being provided in the low glycemic index meal (glycemic index = 28).

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 238191 0
Fat oxidation will be estimated with the oxygen consumption (VO2) and the carbon dioxide excretion (VCO2) values obtained through indirect calorimetry, using the Frayn (1983) equation.
Timepoint [1] 238191 0
At baseline and on day 5 of the test meal consumption (once a day)
Primary outcome [2] 238192 0
Energy intake assessed by food diary
Timepoint [2] 238192 0
At baseline (the week before participating in the study) and 24 h after the consumption of the last test meal on day 5
Secondary outcome [1] 242498 0
Respiratory exchange ratio will be assessed by indirect calorimetry
Timepoint [1] 242498 0
Baseline and on day 5 of the high glycemic and the low glycemic index sessions

Summary
Brief summary
The study will be conducted to test the hypothesis that consuming low glycemic index meals will lead to greater fat oxidation during the postprandial period and subsequent high-intensity exercise than consuming high glycemic index meals will.
