Is the GI System Built For Exercise?

Carl V. Gisolfi

C. V. Gisolfi is Professor in the Department of Exercise Science at the University of Iowa, Iowa City, IA 52242-1111.

Gastric emptying and intestinal absorption rates of beverages ingested during exercise equal sweat rates. However, strenuous or prolonged exercise under dehydrated conditions can produce gastrointestinal distress and tissue damage.
