Dietary control
GI distress
Participants were informed to refrain from eating any beverages or meals containing baking soda, CAF, or alcohol throughout the experiment and doing high-intensity activity within 24 h before protocol. Participants were given a list of typical foods and beverages that were safe to consume and those that should be avoided. Although participants did not record their dietary intake during the experiment, they were recommended to record it 24 h before the first condition to replicate it before the subsequent sessions. Participants consumed a standardized snack (white bread and boiled eggs) containing 1.5 g/kg BW carbs, 20 g protein, and 10 g fat 150 min before each protocol to reduce the possibility of GI distress.
