Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract
Routledge (Verlag)
978-1-138-24414-6 (ISBN)
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, covering topics including:
physical activity and the oesophagus
gastro-duodenal function and physical activity
physical activity and peptic ulcers
physical activity and gastro-oesophageal cancers
physical activity and the function of the large bowel
physical activity and chronic intestinal inflammation.
With each chapter including a thorough bibliography and signposts to further reading, Physical Activity and the Gastro-Intestinal Tract provides a complete reference for understanding how exercise affects the function of the digestive organs. It is an important text for academics and upper-level students in sports medicine and exercise physiology, and for health professionals in preventative medicine.
Roy J. Shephard is Professor Emeritus of Applied Physiology in the Faculty of Kinesiology & Physical Education at the University of Toronto, Canada. He was Director of the School of Physical and Health Education (now the Faculty of Kinesiology & Physical Education) at the University of Toronto for 12 years (1979-1991), and he served as Director of the University of Toronto Graduate Programme in Exercise Sciences from 1964 to 1985.
