Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract

Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract is the first book to explain the function and response to exercise of the gastro-intestinal system, in cases of both health and disease, and helps to shed light on the role they play in acute and chronic exercise. Professor Roy Shephard synthesises previously disparate research to explain the physiology, function, pathology of disease and role of exercise in both health and chronic disease._x005F_x000D_ _x005F_x000D_ _x005F_x000D_ _x005F_x000D_ The book is an important text for academics and upper-level students in sports medicine and exercise physiology, and for health professionals in preventative medicine.
