Abstract

U okruženju velike konkurencije sportaši često konzumiraju dodatke prehrani kako bi dodatno unaprijedili sposobnosti postignute treningom i poboljšali svoju izvedbu. Ta poboljšanja u sportskoj izvedbi mogu značiti razliku između pobjede i poraza. Nedavna istraživanja upotrebe prehrambenih nitrata i njihove uloge u vaskularnoj funkciji dovela su do toga da postaju progresivno popularnija među sportašima koji pokušavaju poboljšati radnu sposobnost. Tijekom aktivnosti u ekipnim sportovima u kojima se javljaju kratkotrajne visoko-intenzivne aktivnosti isprepletene s kratkim razdobljima oporavka, dokazano je da suplementacija sokom od cikle, bogatom nitratima, može poboljšati fiziološke procese mišićnih vlakana tipa II, čija je regrutacija značajno zastupljena u takvim uvjetima. Suplementacija nitratima dovesti će do brojnih povoljnih učinaka, prvenstveno dušikovog okisda, naročito pri aktivnostima visokog intenziteta i smanjene raspoloživosti kisika.

Abstract (english)

In an environment of high competition athletes often consume dietary supplements to enhance the abilities achieved by training, and improve performance. These improvements in performance, could make the difference between winning and losing. Recent research on the use of dietary nitrates and their role in vascular function has led to their increasing popularity among athletes in search for performance improvement. In team sports, with short-term high-intensity activities intertwined with short recovery periods, it has been shown that beetroot juice supplementation can improve the physiological processes of type II muscle fibres,
predominantly recruited in such activities. Nitrate supplementation will lead to several benefits within the body, primarily through the many functions of nitric oxide, during high intensity activities when the availability of oxygen is reduced and the action of nitrate supplements is enhanced.
