We investigate the impact of a probiotic-based dietary supplement on oxidative stress and endotoxemia before and after strenuous exercise.

Hypotheses (H1):

Supplementation has an influence on oxidative stress parameters before and post exercise
Supplementation has an influence on parameters of endotoxemia and inflammation before and post exercise
Strenuous exercise has an influence on parameters of oxidative stress, inflammation and endotoxemia
