Brief Summary:
The small intestine and feces of subjects undergoing endurance exercise will be sampled to examine their microbiome composition
Detailed Description:
The close relationship between humans and the commensal microbes of their gut microbiota represents vast potential for health maintenance, but most efforts have been focused on disease. Gastrointestinal (GI) problems are very common especially in endurance athletes, and are known to impair performance or subsequent recovery. Moreover, GI symptoms among athletes vary enormously, and some athletes are more prone than others; the links between this variation and the differences in microbiome composition across individuals have not been elucidated. The investigators propose to use a novel, non-invasive sampling technology to quantify the effects of exercise on the GI environment including the small intestines, and aim to establish the potential for dietary interventions to improve recovery from exercise.
