A method and lactate compound for four unique purposes: (1) the provision of a fuel energy source to skeletal muscles, hearts and other tissues and organs of humans and other mammals during exercise and recovery; (2) cardiac energy supplementation following ischemia; (3) the maintenance of blood glucose and restoration of liver glycogen; and (4) the provision of fluid and electrolytes to humans and other mammals before, during and after exercise. The lactate compound is preferably a glycerol-lactate ester or a glycerol-acetate ester. Specific examples of the compound include glycerol-monolactate ester (GMLE), glycerol-dilactate ester (GDLE), and most preferably, glycerol-trilactate ester (GTLE):
