No results posted yet for this study

Summary

The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of sodium nitrate on resting metabolic rate, glucose uptake and formation of reactive oxygen species in humans.

Conditions

  • Resting Metabolic Rate

Interventions

OTHER

Glucose Uptake

Glucose uptake is measured by oral glucose tolerance test and euglycemic clamp

OTHER

Resting metabolic rate

Resting metabolic rate is measured by indirect calorimetry after an over-night fast

OTHER

Nitrite infusion

Sodium nitrite or saline was infused at escalating doses at a rate of 1, 10 or 100 nmol kg-1 min-1 (10 minutes per dose) in a randomized, double blinded cross-over fashion
