Interventions
Other: Prolonged Exercise session
Registration Number
NCT04244149
Lead Sponsor
Universidad Europea de Madrid
Brief Summary

The aim of this project is to study the effect of a bout of exercise on the metabolomic profile of plasma and feces as well as its influence on the intestinal microbiota.

Detailed Description

The practice of physical exercise has numerous health benefits, preventing the appearance and development of cardiovascular diseases and various types of cancer. Exercise causes changes in the vascular, muscular and pulmonary systems, etc. One of the benefits that can result from exercise modification of the intestinal microbiota and its metabolic profile. In order to identify the potential changes that exercise has on the intestinal microbiota and its metabolic profile, the purpose of this study is to identify changes in the plasma and fecal metabolome and in fecal microbiota associated with a bout of exercise
