The Effects of Physical Training on The Iron Status of Female Athletes

Abstract

dc:description

Hemoglobin and hematocrit increased significantly in the athletes as compared to the controls in the second season. Iron intake averaged 13 mg/day in all subjects. Neither iron nor vitamin C intake differed significantly between athletes and controls over either year. Changes in free erythrocyte protoporphyrin (measured in the second season only) did not differ significantly between the two groups.
