Metabolismo energético em atletas de endurance é diferente entre os sexos

Atletas de endurance têm suas necessidades energéticas aumentadas devido ao seu alto gasto energético durante o exercício. Contudo, ainda não estão claros quais são as diferenças do metabolismo energético entre os sexos e se essas diferenças vão implicar em mudanças em suas dietas. Sendo assim, o objetivo deste trabalho foi reunir informações da literatura sobre as diferenças entre os sexos em relação ao metabolismo energético em atletas de endurance. Alguns estudos demonstram que, durante exercício de longa duração, as mulheres utilizam como fonte de energia maior quantidade de lipídeos e menor de carboidratos e proteínas, quando comparadas aos homens. Já outros autores não encontraram diferença entre os sexos na proporção dos substratos metabolizados, mas sim nos tipos de lipídeos utilizados. Essa diferença na utilização de substratos vem sendo relacionada a distintas concentrações de alguns hormônios entre homens e mulheres, como: 17β-estradiol, progesterona, testosterona, epinefrina, norepinefrina, hormônio de crescimento, insulina e glucagon. Também foi observado que os atletas aumentam seus estoques de glicogênio quando consomem dieta com sobrecarga glicídica, enquanto que as atletas apenas têm seus estoques de glicogênio aumentados quando ingerem dieta com sobrecarga glicídica e hiperenergética. Esse achado é bastante relevante, pois a concentração de glicogênio está diretamente ligada ao rendimento do atleta durante o exercício de endurance. Portanto, a literatura sugere que há diferenças entre os sexos quanto à utilização de substratos em atletas. Porém, novos estudos são necessários para melhor esclarecimento do metabolismo energético dos atletas de endurance possibilitando, assim, a adequação de suas recomendações nutricionais.
