Anaerobic exercise decreases systemic pH and increases metabolic acidosis in athletes,
altering the acid-base homeostasis. In addition, nutritional recommendations advising …

Sport disciplines with different metabolic characteristics require different dietary approaches.
Bodybuilders or sprinters (“anaerobic” athletes) need a high-protein diet (HPD) in order to …

Objective It is evident that the gut microbiota and factors that influence its composition and
activity effect human metabolic, immunological and developmental processes. We …

Gut health and immune function are central to preventing illnesses that negatively impact
athletic performance. More recently, evidence suggests that gut health and immune function …

Gut microbiota and exercise have recently been shown to be interconnected. Both moderate
and intense exercise are typically part of the training regimen of endurance athletes, but they …

Exposure to passive heat (acclimation) and exercise under hot conditions (acclimatization),
known as heat acclimation (HA), are methods that athletes include in their routines to …

Background Gut microbiota is considered to have a great impact on human health and
