Abstract:
The levels of the thyrotropic and thyroid hormones were studied in the serum of 115 persons going in for jogging and in 271 persons not going in for jogging, using a radioimmunoassay. Jogging was shown to cause an increase in blood T3 concentration. The author discussed the role of the thyroid hormones in the regulation of oxygen supply of tissues, shifts in water, electrolytic and carbohydrate metabolisms, and lipid levels in persons going in for jogging.
