RESULTS:
Performance time for the 75-km time trial was 4.8% slower under pistachio conditions

CONCLUSIONS:
In summary, 2-weeks pistachio nut ingestion was associated with reduced 75-km cycling time trial performance and increased post-exercise plasma levels of raffinose, sucrose, and metabolites related to leukotoxic effects and oxidative stress.
