What did studies of high-intensity interval training + spirulina find?

4

Studies of high-intensity interval training + spirulina measured 4 outcomes, among them Dectin-1, Sphingosine-1-phosphate and IL-10.

Dectin-1

downin humans1

1 study
  1. High-intensity interval training + spirulina decreases Dectin-1 in humans (obesity).

    “A decrease in Dectin-1 concentrations post-intervention was found only in the HIIT+BA group (P = .03).”

1 study
  1. High-intensity interval training + spirulina increases Sphingosine-1-phosphate in humans (obesity).

    “Also, an increase in S1P concentrations was observed in the HIIT+P and HIIT+BA groups (P = .03, P = .003, respectively).”
