| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | 2014 2020 2023 2024 2019 2023 2020 2009 2009 2022 Phytochemicals, compounds found in plants, have received great interest because of the potential effects on improving health and reducing disease risk (Bell et al.,). | 3 | Howatson Glyn (2026) | (Poly)phenols: Mechanisms of action and efficacy of contemporary supplements for exercise recovery and performance |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | They are chemical compounds, mostly secondary metabolites found in plants, that have a range of important botanical functions, including growth, pigmentation and protection from ultraviolet stress (Zagoskina et al.,). | 3 | Howatson Glyn (2026) | (Poly)phenols: Mechanisms of action and efficacy of contemporary supplements for exercise recovery and performance |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | This brief review examines the potential mechanisms that might underpin the recovery and performance‐enhancing effects of (poly)phenol‐rich foods and provides a précis of some underlying exemplar evidence from widely studied and popular (poly)phenol interventions. | 3 | Howatson Glyn (2026) | (Poly)phenols: Mechanisms of action and efficacy of contemporary supplements for exercise recovery and performance |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Of particular interest are those classified as phenols and polyphenols, collectively termed (poly)phenols (Frank et al.,). | 3 | Howatson Glyn (2026) | (Poly)phenols: Mechanisms of action and efficacy of contemporary supplements for exercise recovery and performance |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | After short-term supplementation (up to 14 days), extract from New Zealand grown blackcurrants provided the strongest evidence, with many studies reporting up to 30% increases in fat oxidation and typically ~5-12% decreases in carbohydrate oxidation during continuous moderate-intensity exercise (cycling, walking and running). | 4 | Cook MD (2026) | Anthocyanin-Induced Alterations in Substrate Oxidation During Exercise: A Narrative Review. |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | Mechanistic evidence for blackcurrant-induced effects suggests altered intramuscular triglyceride use and glycogen availability. | 4 | Cook MD (2026) | Anthocyanin-Induced Alterations in Substrate Oxidation During Exercise: A Narrative Review. |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | The bioactive flavonoid compound anthocyanin that is present in berries and other pigmented fruits has received interest for effects on substrate oxidation during exercise. | 4 | Cook MD (2026) | Anthocyanin-Induced Alterations in Substrate Oxidation During Exercise: A Narrative Review. |
| Blackcurrant Endurance Performance Meta-Analysis | The databases MEDLINE (via PubMed) and SPORTDiscus (via EBSCOhost) were searched from 4 March to 5 August 2026 for trials examining the exercise-induced metabolic effects of anthocyanin-rich foods and supplements. | 4 | Cook MD (2026) | Anthocyanin-Induced Alterations in Substrate Oxidation During Exercise: A Narrative Review. |
