Abstract

Although it is well known that physical activity contributes to a healthy life style, unaccustomed exercise or high eccentric muscle contraction lead to exercise-induced muscle damage (EIMD) inducing pains and affecting exercise training in athletes. Several approaches, including nutrition based on a polyphenols-rich diet or supplementation, have been showed to prevent and/or reduce muscle damage in athletes after physical exercise. In this manuscript we addressed the effect of natural polyphenols as antioxidant and anti- inflammatory agent that are used on recovery of EIMD in athletes.
