ABSTRACT
This study explored the cardiometabolic responses to sugar moieties acutely, and following a subsequent mixed meal tolerance test (MMTT). Twenty-one healthy adolescents (N = 10 female, 14.3 ± 0.4 years) completed 3 experimental and 1 control condition, in a counterbalanced order. These consisted of different drinks to compare the effect of 300 mL of water (control), or 300 mL of water mixed with 60 g of glucose, fructose or sucrose, on vascular function (flow-mediated dilation (FMD), microvascular reactivity (total hyperaemic response; TRH), and cerebrovascular reactivity (CVR)), and blood samples for uric acid, glucose, triglycerides and lactate concentrations. FMD increased 1 h after glucose and sucrose (P < 0.001, ES ≥ 0.92) but was unchanged following fructose and water (P ≥ 0.19, ES ≥ 0.09). CVR and TRH were unchanged 1 h following all conditions (P > 0.57, effect size (ES) > 0.02). Following the MMTT, FMD was impaired in all conditions (P < 0.001, ES > 0.40) with no differences between conditions (P > 0.13, ES < 0.39). Microvascular TRH was increased in all conditions (P = 0.001, ES = 0.88), and CVR was preserved in all conditions after MMTT (P = 0.87, ES = 0.02). Blood uric acid concentration was elevated following fructose consumption and the MMTT (P < 0.01, ES > 0.40). Consumption of a sugar sweetened beverage did not result in vascular dysfunction in healthy adolescents; however, the vascular and metabolic responses were dependent on sugar moiety. Novelty Glucose consumption acutely increases peripheral vascular function in healthy adolescents. Acute sugar sweetened beverage consumption (sucrose) does not result in adverse vascular outcomes. Elevations in uric acid are observed with fructose consumption, which may have implications over repeated exposure.
