In this new study we report a sex-specific difference in how females perceive the application of this &#8220;non-thermally&#8221; cooling  L-menthol rinse during exercise in a hot environment. The impact of such findings are crucial for the exploration of ergogenic supplements for use in hot climates particularly when considering the differences between male and female populations. <\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The article can be found here:<strong>&nbsp;<\/strong><a rel=\"noreferrer noopener\" href=\"https:\/\/doi.org\/10.1016\/j.physbeh.2020.113250\" target=\"_blank\">10.1016\/j.physbeh.2020.113250<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Our latest study has been accepted for publication in the journal Physiology &amp; Behaviour on 1st February 2021.
