Effects of Antioxidant Supplementation on Oxidative Stress in Trained Cyclists
نویسنده
چکیده
trenuous physical exercise is thought to stimulate increased production of reactive oxygen species (ROS), as demonstrated by elevated markers of oxidative stress in the skeletal muscle, blood, and urine of athletes. Antioxidant supplementation has been shown to reduce levels of such markers, and as such, holds promise for limiting exercise-induced oxidative damage, reducing the rate of muscle fatigue, and hastening recovery from bouts of intense exercise. The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of a fullspectrum antioxidant supplement on urinary markers of oxidative stress in trained cyclists.

Effect of Vitamin Supplementation on Exercise Induced Oxidative Stress in Trained Elite Indian Cyclists
It has been established that intense physical exercise is associated with an increase in free radical production. Our body has defense system to combat the deleterious effect. But, when the body’s natural defense system against free radicals are overwhelmed, oxidative stress increases. In the present investigation, we studied the effect of vitamin supplementation (composed of 400 IU of vitamin ...
متن کاملPrior exercise and antioxidant supplementation: effect on oxidative stress and muscle injury
BACKGROUND Both acute bouts of prior exercise (preconditioning) and antioxidant nutrients have been used in an attempt to attenuate muscle injury or oxidative stress in response to resistance exercise. However, most studies have focused on untrained participants rather than on athletes. The purpose of this work was to determine the independent and combined effects of antioxidant supplementation...
متن کاملEffect of Antioxidant Supplementation on Exercise-Induced Cardiac Troponin Release in Cyclists: A Randomized Trial
BACKGROUND Cardiac troponin is the biochemical gold standard to diagnose acute myocardial infarction. Interestingly however, elevated cardiac troponin concentrations are also frequently observed during and after endurance-type exercise. Oxidative stress associated with prolonged exercise has been proposed to contribute to cardiac troponin release. Therefore, the aim of this study was to assess ...

Despite the preventative and therapeutic effects of regular exercise, exhaustive exercise may be harmful to health. The present study aimed to determine the protective effect of endurance training and cinnamon bark extract (CBE) supplementation on oxidative responses induced by an exhaustive exercise schedule in rats. The rats were randomly divided into the following five groups of 6; control s...
