AUTHOR(S): Berdieva DT, Seydalieva LT and Abdullaeva MM
ABSTRACT:
The high physical activity inherent in modern sport, determines the special requirements for the energy supply system of the athlete's body, different from those presented to ordinary people. A sports result depends on how efficiently an athlete’s body can mobilize its energy resources. First of all, this concerns the thyroid glands, the extremely important role of which in the regulation of energy metabolism in the body is not in doubt. The high correlation between the levels of iodine in the urine and blood lactate before and after exercise, recommend ioduria as a reliable biochemical marker for assessing both the iodine status of athletes and the effectiveness of the body's energy supply systems during muscle activity and during recovery processes.
