What moved
How to read these marks →“Identically, TNF-α levels were shown to have lower levels at 10-km, and 20-km during exercise and after garlic supplementation compared to those of placebo (< 0.05).”
- Population
- Eleven healthy, physically active males in a single-blind crossover with a 28-day washout; serum TNF-α, difference at 10 km and 20 km only
“Figure 3(a) shows that TAC responses were significantly higher in the garlic trial compared to those in placebo before exercise and during the exercise period (< 0.05).”
- Population
- Eleven healthy, physically active males in a single-blind crossover with a 28-day washout; plasma TAC before and during a 40-km cycling bout
What did not
“Following 4-wks of oral supplementation, there was no significant improvement in the 40-km cycling time trial performance after garlic supplementation compared to placebo trials (garlic trial: 81.18 ± 2.12 (min); placebo trial: 84.14 ± 2.88 (min), p > 0.05).”
- Population
- Eleven healthy, physically active males in a single-blind crossover with a 28-day washout; fixed-distance 40-km cycling time trial at 50% VO2max
