Can taste be ergogenic?

Russ Best et al.

Summary: Taste is not limited to the oral cavity and can impact multiple physiological systems to enhance exercise performance. Methods such as carbohydrate mouth rinsing, oral exposure to bitter tastants and caffeine, and hot and cold tastes can improve endurance performance. Factors such as dose, frequency, and timing of tastant application need personalization for effectiveness, and the placebo effect can play a role in enhancing or confounding the ergogenic benefits of taste.

Caffeine and Cognitive Functions in Sports: A Systematic Review and Meta-Analysis

Jorge Lorenzo Calvo et al.

Summary: The relationship between caffeine intake and cognitive performance during exercise has gained attention. Studies suggest that low/moderate doses of caffeine before and/or during exercise can improve self-reported energy, mood, and cognitive functions like attention, as well as potentially impacting simple reaction time, choice reaction time, memory, or fatigue depending on research protocols.
