The organs of the gastro-intestinal tract play an essential role in
sustained physical activity, but their consideration in
exercise-related literature has, to this point, been limited.
Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract is the first book
to explain the function and response to exercise of the
gastro-intestinal system, in cases of both health and disease, and
helps to shed light on the role they play in acute and chronic
exercise. Professor Roy Shephard synthesises previously disparate
research to explain the physiology, function, pathology of disease
and role of exercise in both health and chronic disease, covering
topics including: physical activity and the oesophagus
gastro-duodenal function and physical activity physical activity
and peptic ulcers physical activity and gastro-oesophageal cancers
physical activity and the function of the large bowel physical
activity and chronic intestinal inflammation. With each chapter
including a thorough bibliography and signposts to further reading,
Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract provides a
complete reference for understanding how exercise affects the
function of the digestive organs. It is an important text for
academics and upper-level students in sports medicine and exercise
physiology, and for health professionals in preventative medicine.
