HERRERA-ROCHA, Karen Marlenne et al. Effect of high-resistance training at intestinal level, morphological and systemic changes, consumption of natural sources as a therapeutic alternative. TIP [online]. 2021, vol.24, e344.  Epub 17-Abr-2023. ISSN 1405-888X.  https://doi.org/10.22201/fesz.23958723e.2021.344.

Exercising is one of the greatest benefits for the health. However, at a systemic level it can be harmful depending on the intensity degree with which the athletes practice. The high-resistance training involves exhaustive training that can result in gastrointestinal symptoms and systemic manifestations occur such as the triggering of the inflammatory process, progression of oxidative stress and gut microbiota modification. Currently, athletes consume commercial products to counteract these effects. However, there are natural therapeutic alternatives such as the consumption of sources rich in dietary fiber and polyphenols. The use of these sources can improve the symptoms presented by reducing systemic oxidative processes, improving intestinal protection and increasing sports performance. This review it focuses on the systemic mechanisms modifiable by the high-resistance training and the consumption of natural sources as fiber and polyphenolic compounds a therapeutic alternative to reduce intestinal symptoms and negative systemic processes in the athlete and favor naturally their gut health.
