Investigating the Associations Between Hydration and Exercise Performance: Methodology and Limitations

This article by Ronald J. Maughan is part of a 2012 supplement published in Nutrition Reviews, which follows up the Second International IAFNS Conference on Hydration and Health, held November 15–16, 2011. The conference reviewed the available science on hydration and related health issues, while also providing a scientific discussion of the compilation of data on fluid intake as it relates to health, well-being, disease, and human performance.

Mechanisms for Sweetness

This article reviews these data,with a particular focus on the elucidation of the sweet taste receptor, its location and actions in taste transduction in the mouth, its nontaste functions in the gastrointestinal tract (e.g., in enteroendocrine cells), and the brain circuitry involved in the sensory processing of sweet taste.
