Summary

The study aimed to check the influence of timing and composition of diet on markers of gut injury, endotoxemia and stress.

Detailed description

The research protocol includes detailed food intake analysis, including timing and composition, markers related to the neuroendocrine pathway cortisol, and observations of individually experienced symptoms. Moreover, the study also explores intestinal injury and endotoxemia parameters, such as I-FABP, CLDN-3, and LBP. As a first goal, this study investigates the timing and composition of food intake concerning changes in gut integrity, cortisol levels, and gastrointestinal symptoms. Investigators explored whether an athlete's nutritional intake influences any GI disturbance induced by high-intensity exercise. As a second goal, Investigators tried to connect symptoms and markers from both pathways with gastrointestinal complaints. Investigators hypothesised that cortisol levels would be more profound than other studied parameters in gastrointestinal symptoms.
