The hypotheses of this research were (1) to test if
the antagonistic effect of ethanol on liver copper could
be seen within a short period when ethanol ingestion,
low dietary copper and high metabolic demand represent ...
Trained male cyclists (6 in study 1, 5 in study 2) cycled to exhaustion (EXH) at
75% of VO₂ max twice; once in the non-supplemented (NS) state and once in the vitamin
