Background: Antioxidant supplementation has become a common practice among athletes
to theoretically achieve a reduction in oxidative stress, promote recovery and improve …

High levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS) produced in skeletal muscle during exercise
have been associated with muscle damage and impaired muscle function. Supporting …

Resistance training is known to promote the generation of reactive oxygen species.
Although this can likely upregulate the natural, endogenous antioxidant defense systems …

Research interest in the effects of antioxidants on exercise-induced oxidative stress and
human performance continues to grow as new scientists enter this field. Consequently, there …

Vigorous exercise generates large amounts of reactive oxygen species (ROS) as a result of
the consumption of large volumes of O 2 in athletes, causing some athletes to consume …

Reactive oxygen and nitrogen species (RONS), also known as free radicals, are con tinually
produced within the body as part of normal oxidative metabolism (Finaud et al. 2006; …

Physical training is known to induce a biochemical adaptive response which might require
an increase in the ingestion and/or the absorption of micronutrients. A question that is still …

Typically, free radicals are thought of as perpetrators of cell damage, ageing, even cancer,
whereas antioxidants are seen as the defence against these threats. Accordingly …

This review discusses studies investigating the effects of antioxidant supplementation on
exercise-induced oxidative stress with a focus on the health implications. The aim is to …

The aim of this commentary was to discuss the last studies regarding the effect of antioxidant
vitamins supplementation on oxidative stress in exercise in humans. The inclusion criteria …
