Metabolomic profiles of being physically active and less sedentary: a critical review.

ABSTRACT:

Background

Being physically active has multiple salutary effects on human health, likely mediated by changes in energy metabolism. Recent reviews have summarized metabolomic responses to acute exercise. However, metabolomic profiles of individuals who exercise regularly are heterogeneous.

Aim of review

We conducted a systematic review to identify metabolites associated with physical activity (PA), fitness, and sedentary time in community-dwelling adults and discussed involved pathways. Twenty-two studies were eligible because they (1) focused on community-dwelling adults from observational studies; (2) assessed PA, fitness, and/or sedentary time, (3) assessed metabolomics in biofluid, and (4) reported on relationships of metabolomics with PA, fitness, and/or sedentary time.<
