Several studies of the relationship of food intake to physical exercise strongly suggest that the two are closely linked. Serotonin transmission seems to be particularly important in the regulation of both appetite and central fatigue. Thus, the ingestion of branched-chain amino acids has been reported to decrease serotonin production and to improve physical performance. In the present study, the effects of three treatments (water, glucose, and branched-chain amino acids) were compared in 34 male Wistar rats. Maximal exercise duration, blood insulin, and glucose levels were measured. Results showed that following the ingestion of branched-chain amino acids, physical performance is lower and blood insulin level is higher than after glucose administration.
几项关于食物摄入量与体育锻炼关系的研究有力地表明，二者紧密相连。血清素传递似乎在食欲和中枢疲劳的调节中尤为重要。因此，据报道摄入支链氨基酸可减少血清素的产生并改善身体机能。在本研究中，对34只雄性Wistar大鼠比较了三种处理（水、葡萄糖和支链氨基酸）的效果。测量了最大运动持续时间、血液胰岛素和葡萄糖水平。结果显示，摄入支链氨基酸后，身体机能低于摄入葡萄糖后，且血液胰岛素水平高于摄入葡萄糖后。
