Recently, consumption of water that is purported to contain 7-10 times the normal amount of oxygen (super water) has been marketed with claims that it can enhance both exercise performance and recovery between bouts of exercise. The purpose of this study was to refute/substantiate those claims. Twelve college-aged volunteers (6 male, 6 female) completed two, sequential maximal exercise tests using a modified Bruce protocol, on two separate days. Fifteen minutes before exercise, subjects' randomly consumed 500 mL of.eitber super oxygenated water or bottled water, Variables measured included restiQ,g sub maximal, and maximal heart rate, blood pressure, ratings of perceived exertion, and blood lactate. There were no significant differences between conditions for any of the variables at rest or during exercise. Data collected during the second test in the sequence were done to assess recovery. There were no differences between conditions tor any of the variables measllfed during tris test. The results suggest that the consumption of ()xygenated water has no effect on incremental exercise to VO2max or on recovery from strenuous exercise.Read More
