Randall Jensen
(HPER) coauthored "Effects of dietary supplementation with
vitamins C and E on muscle function during and after eccentric contractions
in humans." The paper, based on research conducted while Jensen
was on sabbatical at the University of Limerick, was published in
the October 2004 issue of the European Journal of Applied Physiology.
Amir Shafat was the lead author. The study's findings indicated
that although there was no effect on delayed onset muscle soreness,
prior supplementation with dietary antioxidants (Vitamins C and
E) resulted in smaller losses of muscle strength following eccentric
muscle exercise. In other words, decreases in performance were somewhat
less when supplementing with combined Vitamin E and C.
Ron
Johnson (English) recently
published a book titled Silver Thaw and Selected Stories.
