The Human Effect Matrix looks at human studies (excluding animal/petri-dish studies) to tell you what what supplements affect Glycogen Resynthesis

Grade	Level of Evidence
A	Robust research conducted with repeated double blind clinical trials
B	Multiple studies where at least two are double-blind and placebo controlled
C	Single double blind study or multiple cohort studies
D	Uncontrolled or observational studies only

Level of Evidence	Supplement	Magnitude of Effect Size	Scientific Consensus	Comments
C	Fenugreek	Minor	50% See 2 studies	Mixed influence on glycogen resynthesis rates, but may have a possible benefit
C	Creatine	Notable	100% See study	Degree of improvement is somewhat more potent than other supplemental options, and may be related to the improvements in glycemic control seen with creatine.
D	Vanadium	Minor	100% See study	An increase in glycogen content has been noted in diabetic persons given vanadium, no studies in athletes currently
