Official Title: MitoQ Supplementation for Restoring Aerobic Exercise Training Effects on Endothelial Function in Postmenopausal Women
Brief Summary:
An impairment in vascular function can lead to the development of age-associated cardiovascular disease (CVD), the leading cause of death in postmenopausal women.Regular aerobic exercise (AE) benefits vascular function in older men by reducing oxidative stress, however, similar AE training improvements are diminished or absent in postmenopausal women.not using estrogen-based hormone therapy.Vascular function and oxidative stress are improved with AE training in postmenopausal women treated with E2, suggesting an…
