Global warming is attributed to an increased frequency of high ambient temperatures and humidity, elevating the prevalence of high-temperature-related illness and death. Evidence over recent decades highlights that tailored nutritional strategies are essential to improve performance and optimise health during acute and chronic exertional-heat exposure. Therefore, the purpose of this review is to discuss the efficacy of various nutritional strategies and ergogenic aids on responses during and following acute and chronic exertional-heat exposure. An outline is provided surrounding the application of various nutritional practices (e.g., carbohydrate loading, fluid replacement strategies) and ergogenic aids (e.g., caffeine, creatine, nitrate, tyrosine) to improve physiological, cognitive, and recovery responses to acute exertional-heat exposure. Additionally, this review will evaluate if the magnitude and time course of chronic heat adaptations can be modified with tailored supplementation practices. This review highlights that there is robust evidence for the use of certain ergogenic aids and nutritional strategies to improve performance and health outcomes during exertional-heat exposure. However, equivocal findings across studies appear dependent on factors such as exercise testing modality, duration, and intensity; outcome measures in relation to the ergogenic aid’s proposed mechanism of action; and sex-specific responses. Collectively, this review provides evidence-based recommendations and highlights areas for future research that have the potential to assist with prescribing specific nutritional strategies and ergogenic aids in populations frequently exercising in the heat. Future research is required to establish dose-, sex-, and exercise-modality-specific responses to various nutritional practices and ergogenic aid use for acute and chronic exertional-heat exposure.
