supplementation has beneficial effects in immune system and can antioxidant enzymes activity increases during the exercise and protects the tissue against the oxidative stress. l-carnitine is a famous supplement and helps to protect against the oxidative stress during and after intense or prolonged exercise. the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of l-carnitine supplementation on t...

The body’s predominant choice of substrates and the rate their oxidation in working muscle are largely influenced by physical activity intensity. higher intensity work, more important role energy supply processes played carbohydrates. It is suggested that ability to most effectively use fat as an substrate at rest during exercise allows athletes save carbohydrates perform high-intensity work. T...

The present study examined the effect of high-intensity exercise training on muscle sarcolemmal lactate/H+ transport and the monocarboxylate transporters (MCT1 and MCT4) as well as lactate and H+ release during intense exercise in humans. One-legged knee-extensor exercise training was performed for 8 wk, and biopsies were obtained from untrained and trained vastus lateralis muscle. The rate of ...

The purpose of this study was to investigate the potential of bovine colostrum to attenuate postexercise decline in immune function. The authors evaluated the time course of a number of immune variables after short-term intense exercise in 9 male athletes after 10 d of supplementation with either colostrum or skim-milk powder. To increase the stress on the immune system subjects performed a gly...

Regular exercise has an antidepressant effect in human subjects. Studies using animals have suggested that the antidepressant effect of exercise is attributable to an increase of brain 5-hydroxytryptamine (5-HT); however, the precise mechanism underlying the antidepressant action via exercise is unclear. In contrast, the effect of 5-HT on antidepressant activity has not been clarified, in part ...
