Vitamin D in Healthy Adults After Strenuous Endurance Exercise

Not Applicable
Completed
Conditions
Healthy
Registration Number
NCT05779410
Lead Sponsor
Taipei Medical University
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of vitamin D supplementation on biochemical response and aerobic capacity after strenuous endurance exercise (SEE).

Detailed Description

All participants conducted a graded exercise test on an ergometric bicycle to determine the maximal oxygen consumption (VO2max) before and after supplementation, and the speed equivalent to 65% VO2max was conducted for a SEE test by ergometric bicycle for 2 hours, followed by increasing 100 RPM until exhaustion. Venous blood samples were drawn before, immediately after, 2-hour after, 4-hour after, 8-hour after, and 24-hour after the SEE test to determine the concentrations of biomarkers. Data was analyzed by Two-way mixed design ANOVA.
