RESUMO

This study aimed to investigate the effects of an acute dose of NAC as a possible modulator of a large number of markers of oxidative stress and tissue damage in volleyball athletes. Was conducted with 18 young athletes who performed their regular training without the use of antioxidant supplementation, where they underwent an intense training session of volleyball under the effect of Nac (1200mg) or placebo, and measured the biochemical markers before and after exercise. There were no significant changes in markers of oxidative stress and tissue damage. An interesting finding was observed that the amount of vitamin C showed high and may have masked the results of physical exercise and placebo. The ingestion of two doses of 600 mg of NAC is not sufficient to promote antioxidant and / or the protective tissue damage.
