The The last two decades there has been a growing interest in the nitric oxide (NO) function in the body of a healthy person. In the study, two very specific problems are discussed: a) the NO involvement in mechanisms of adaptation at muscular work under hypoxia conditions, and b) the inorganic nitrate supplementation in athlete’s diet with the aim of sports performance improvement. The reorganizations that occur in the heart vasculature and in skeletal muscle for providing muscle work under hypoxia conditions examined. The named problems are particularly relevant in contemporary sports in which the adding of hypoxic exposure on a body of training persons as well as the inorganic nitrate in sports nutrition application as added means to special performance improvement. Raise the problem of the hypoxia and inorganic nitrate mutual exploitation in the training process.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
