The subjects exercised for 60 minutes at 55-60 maximal heart rate followed by 2
weeks fish oil supplementation(0.9g n-3 FA), followed by the same amount and
intensity as the initial bout of exercise. Blood lipid values were determined before
and after each bout of exercise.
*Data are reported as means + SE, n=7. Means in same row with different
letters are significantly different from each other at P<0.001. #There is a trend
for an decreased TC/HDL-C ratio from pre-exercise:pre-supplementation to postexercise:
post-supplementation at P=0.072. |
