HEAT, ENDOTOXEMIA
Collectively, these data do not support the hypotheses that BET improves fluid balance and heat tolerance in humans undergoing 1 h of passive thermal stress in young, healthy men. Future research should examine the impact of daily BET supplementation on individuals undergoing active heat stress, with a sufficiently great internal and external thermal load to elicit core temperatures beyond 39.0°C, to determine if BET can promote GI integrity and thereby attenuate or prevent endotoxemia during exercise in the heat.
