Effects of High-intensity Exercise With Hypoxia and Taurine Supplementation on Metabolic and Mitochondrial Parameters

Effects of High-intensity Intermittent Exercise With Recovery Hypoxia and Taurine Supplementation in Women With Obesity on Metabolic and Mitochondrial Parameters

Source: ClinicalTrials.gov · Last updated 11 May 2026

Brief summary (registry, in English)

The prevalence of obesity in Brazil is one of the highest in Latin America. As an inflammatory disease, obesity needs to be treated, and one of the best interventions is exercise. This research aims to learn more about the effects of combining high-intensity training, recovery hypoxia, and taurine supplementation. To better understand these effects, the researchers will compare hypoxia and normoxia, as well as taurine and placebo, with all participants training in the same way. The researchers will also investigate mitochondrial respiration and food consumption to connect certain aspects of obesity with overall health.
