Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The objective of this study is to investigate whether two newly developed sports drink will affect gastric distress (GD) and running performance (RP) compared to an iso-caloric control drink both in a short and longer distance run. Furthermore, the effect of the newly developed sports drinks on gastric emptying will be investigated.

The study will consist of 3 parts. Firstly, a randomized cross-over design is used for the short distance run and the effects on GD and RP. Secondly, a parallel design is used to study the effects of the drinks on GD and RP during a longer distance run. Thirdly, the gastric emptying tests will be performed in a randomized cross-over design. Participants will be asked to fill in questionnaire on the gastric distress they experience. 40 participants will be enrolled to participate in part 1 and part 2. 10 out of 40 will participate in part 3 of the study.
