MitoQ & Cardiopulmonary Responses During Exercise

Completed · Not applicable · Has a placebo group

Conditions studied: Healthy

In brief

Study Purpose: To examine the acute effects of antioxidant supplementation on energy use during a single bout of exercise in apparently healthy adult men and women. Specifically this study examined the acute effect of MitoQ on: 1. cardiopulmonary responses to submax and maximal exercise 2. Energy expenditure and fat/carbohydrate oxidation during sub maximal exercise. In a double-blind, randomized, placebo controlled, cross-over study design, participants performed 2 experimental trials which differed only in the supplement consumed (MitoQ or Placebo). Participants performed identical exercise protocols which consisted of a series of submaximal workloads followed by a ramp protocol to volitional exhaustion.
