Brief summary
The objectives are to test the acute effects of different extruded pulse snacks on: 1) aerobic endurance and substrate oxidation during exercise 2) response of blood glucose, insulin and appetite on an aerobic exercise session, and 3) food intake two hours following the exercise session. The investigators hypothesize that consumption of food products containing pulse ingredients 60 minutes before exercise will increase aerobic endurance (lower oxygen consumption), decrease carbohydrate oxidation (greater respiratory quotient), and a reduction in lactate production during compared to the same exercise session following the ingestion of a non-pulse food. The investigators also hypothesize that consumption of extruded pulse snacks will lead to lower blood glucose, insulin, appetite and food intake, suggesting lower calorie compensation, following a 60-minute aerobic exercise session compared to the same exercise session following the ingestion of a non-pulse food.

Design outcomes
Primary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Plasma Glucose and Insulin Concentrations | 0 - 240 min | Measured in blood using intravenous catheter at 14 time points, used to calculate area under curve (AUC). Glucose will be determined by automated methods using Abbot Spectrum CCX Analyzer, and Insulin will be measured by commercially available RIA kits. (Composite measure) |
| Food Intake | at 120 min | Ad-libitum meal. Food consumed measured by weight. |
| Subjective Appetite | 0-240 min | Measured by VAS questionnaire at 14 time points, used to calculate area under curve (AUC).( Composite measure) |
| Exercise intensity | 60 minutes | Sixty minute exercise protocol at minutes 60 to 120. Oxygen consumption measured during exercise at 3 time points. |
Secondary
| Measure | Time frame | Description |
|---|---|---|
| Energy/fatigue | 0-240 min | Measured by VAS questionnaire at 13 time points, used to calculate area under curve (AUC) (Composite measure) |
| Lactate concentration | 60 minutes | 60 minute exercise protocol at minutes 60 to 120. Measured before, during, and exercise exercise at 3 time points |
| Substrate Oxidation | 60 minutes | Measured during 60 minute exercise protocol at minutes 60-120. Respiratory quotient measured during exercise at 3 time points. |
| Heart rate | 60-120 min | Heart rate monitored over a 60 minute exercise protocol. To monitor exercise intensity and give a measure of fatigue (cardiovascular drift) |
| Palatability of treatments | at 5 minutes | Measured by VAS questionnaire |
| Palatability of meal | at 260 minutes | Measured by VAS questionnaire |
| Physical comfort | 0-240 min | Measured by VAS questionnaire at 13 time points, used to calculate area under curve (AUC) (Composite measure) |
