Effect of oral intake of capsaicinoid beadlets on catecholamine secretion and blood markers of lipolysis in healthy adults: a randomized, placebo controlled, double-blind, cross-over study

Table 4 Blood free fatty acid and glycerol data for healthy adults consuming Capsimax™ and placebo in a randomized cross-over design

Variable	Pre	2 hr (pre-ex)	2.5 hr (1 min post ex)	4 hr (90 min post ex)
Free fatty acid (mmol·L^-1) Capsimax™	0.19 ± 0.04	0.36 ± 0.19 *	0.59 ± 0.31 *	0.37 ± 0.27
Free fatty acid (mmol·L^-1) Placebo	0.25 ± 0.10	0.30 ± 0.18 *	0.56 ± 0.31 *	0.33 ± 0.15
Glycerol (μg·mL^-1) Capsimax™	9.46 ± 1.47	10.42 ± 2.94	28.73 ± 11.45 **	13.89 ± 8.90
Glycerol (μg·mL^-1) Placebo	10.19 ± 4.79	10.73 ± 4.66	25.94 ± 8.02 **	10.53 ± 3.76

Data are Mean ± SD
No interaction or condition effects were noted for FFA or glycerol (p > 0.05).
* A time effect was noted for FFA (p < 0.0001); values higher than Pre at 2 hr and 2.5 hr.
** A time effect was noted for glycerol (p < 0.0001); values higher than Pre at 2.5 hr.
