Glycerol
Glycerol, also known as glycerol, is a colorless, odorless, and sweet viscous liquid. The chemical structure of glycerol is completely different from that of carbohydrates, so it does not belong to the same category of substances. Each gram of glycerol can be completely oxidized to produce 4 calories, which will not change blood sugar after being absorbed by the human body. Glycerol is a commonly used sweetener and moisturizer in the food processing industry, mostly found in sports food and dairy substitutes. Due to the fact that glycerol can increase the moisture content in human tissues, it can enhance the body's ability to move in high heat environments.

Glycerol may contain an acidic substance that generates energy. Researchers compared glycerol with a nutritional sweetener called aspartame by having participants take glycerol and aspartame separately at doses of 1.2g glycerol (in 20% aqueous solution) or 26ml aspartame per kilogram of body weight. The results indicate that under sub extreme exercise loads, glycerol can not only reduce the heart rate of athletes, but also prolong exercise time by 20%.
For people who engage in high-intensity physical training, glycerin may bring them better performance. For bodybuilders, glycerol may help them transfer surface and subcutaneous water to the bloodstream and muscles.
