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 antiinflammatory agent that are used on recovery of EIMD in athletes.
