Methods. The antioxidant profile and physicochemical characteristics of AM1 and AM2 were evaluated. Several cardiorespiratory, anthropometric and body composition parameters of 19 university students, prior to the consumption of AM1, AM2 and water, were evaluated in three non-consecutive sessions (self-control cases). The glycemic, lactic and antioxidant (FRAP), uric acid (AU), reduced glutathione (GSH) and lipid oxidation (TBARS) and protein carbonyls (PC) responses were evaluated in plasma before and after an incremental cycle ergometer exercise test.
