  1. Treatment with distilled water (20 g/kg), EC and ECC (5 g/kg, 10 g/kg, 20 g/kg) for 30 days; After exhaustive swimming, the muscle and liver glycogen level were determined. Values are means ± standard deviations (n = 10). (*) p < 0.05 indicate statistically significant differences versus NCG; (a), (b), (c) p < 0.05 indicate statistically significant differences versus EC-L, EC-M and EC-H group respectively
