February 26, 2008 - Moderate exercise is a healthy practice. However, exhaustive exercise generates free radicals.
•Free radicals generation can be evidenced by increases in lipid peroxidation, glutathione oxidation, and oxidative protein damage.
•It is well known that activity of cytosolic enzymes in blood plasma is increased after exhaustive exercise.This may be taken as a sign of damage to muscle cells.
•The degree of oxidative stress and of muscle damage does not depend on the absolute intensity of exercise but on the degree of exhaustion of the person who performs exercise.
Increasing the metabolic rate by exercising shortens ones life through oxidative stress toxicity.
It is my opinion that a healthy dark chocolate with a high ORAC should be a part of every intense workout. This balance between a healthy workout and the controlling of oxidative damage to muscles is imperitive. The best chocolate with certified ORAC is Xocai. Each of its products is made to fight free radical damage. It is important for every athlete to remember " being physically fit is different from being healthy" Exercise and enjoy Xocai chocolate. Stay healthy and be well.
