Summary

1. Moderate exercise training decrease cytokine response and rhinitis symptoms in patients with allergic rhinitis
2. Moderate exercise training combined with vitamin C supplementation decrease cytokine response and rhinitis symptoms in patients with allergic rhinitis
3. Moderate exercise training combined with vitamin C supplementation has more beneficial effects than moderate exercise training alone for decreasing cytokine response and rhinitis symptoms in patients with allergic rhinitis

Conditions

  • Allergic Rhinitis

Interventions

OTHER

Aerobic exercise with Vit. C

walking - running on a treadmill at intensity of 65-70% HRR for 30 minutes per session three times a week combined with taking vitamin C supplemented daily with an oral dose of 2,000 mg 2 times/day for 8 weeks. Nasal challenge with house dust mites with the evaluation of cytokines in nasal lavage fluid, Nasal peak flow measurement, Nasal blood flow measurement, Exercise training regimen including VO2max measurment at baseline and at the end of the experiment.
