Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialResults Caffeine intake increased average sprint speed ( p = 0.045, η 2 = 0.345) and reduced sprint time ( p = 0.030, η 2 = 0.463) during the m-LIST protocol.4Nanavati K (2026)Individual and Additive Effects of Acute Intake of New Zealand Blackcurrant Powder and Caffeine on High-Intensity Intermittent Running Performance.
Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialSerum free fatty acids concentrations increased over time ( p 2 = 0.900), with a significant NZBP × time interaction ( p = 0.005, η 2 = 0.433).4Nanavati K (2026)Individual and Additive Effects of Acute Intake of New Zealand Blackcurrant Powder and Caffeine on High-Intensity Intermittent Running Performance.
Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialIn contrast, caffeine-containing treatments were associated with improved sprint performance and lower perceived exertion.4Nanavati K (2026)Individual and Additive Effects of Acute Intake of New Zealand Blackcurrant Powder and Caffeine on High-Intensity Intermittent Running Performance.
Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialBackground/objectives Consumption of New Zealand blackcurrant extract for 7 days has shown to reduce slowing of sprint speed in recreationally active males.4Nanavati K (2026)Individual and Additive Effects of Acute Intake of New Zealand Blackcurrant Powder and Caffeine on High-Intensity Intermittent Running Performance.
Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialPrevious research examining the ergogenic benefits of blackcurrant supplementation (BC) on exercise performance is contradictory.4Morton LC (2025)No Effect of Acute or Chronic New Zealand Blackcurrant Extract on Cycling Performance or Physiological Responses in Trained Cyclists.
Blackcurrant Extract Supplementation Exercise Performance Randomized TrialThe BC supplementation period in many studies has typically been chronic (> 6-days), with a final dose taken hours before testing.4Morton LC (2025)No Effect of Acute or Chronic New Zealand Blackcurrant Extract on Cycling Performance or Physiological Responses in Trained Cyclists.
