Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This study will investigate whether increased habitual intake of antioxidant supplements effects the concentration of endogenous antioxidants, the response of antioxidants to exercise, and differences in oxidative damage compared to a non-supplemented group.
