Abstract | ||
This research studies the damage caused by the free radicals that result from the oxidation process accompanying the competitive physical activity of football players. This damage is a consequence of the negative activity of the free oxygen and nitrogen radicals, corresponding an increased activity of certain anti-oxidant enzymes. The problem of this research is the oxidation stress caused by the free radicals which destroy the muscular tissue and decrease the muscular force, especially with a high intensity training load or during competitive effort. The purposes of this research are: 1- Investigating the effect of vitamin C on oxidation stress and the activity of certain anti-oxidant activity before and after a competition. 2- Investigating the effect of vitamin C on certain anti-oxidant enzymes before and after a competition. 3- Identifying the differences between the observed variables of the control and experimental group during the posttests. | ||
