Abstract excerpt
Endurance exercise may be associated with acute damage to intestinal epithelial cells. The effect of caffeine supplementation, and whether this is influenced by common genetic polymorphisms (ADORA2A: rs5751876 and CYP1A2: rs762551), is not currently known. Participants (n = 18 men and women) ingested caffeine (3 mg/kg body mass) or placebo 45 min before cycling (20 min at 70% maximal oxygen uptake followed by a...
