Also, sedentary behavior is associated with increased cardiometabolic risk but studies on immune changes are lacking. Therefore, we aimed to assess: 1) the impact of a pre-exercise Mediterranean meal (MdM) compared with a fast-food type meal (FFM) on exercise-induced immunological changes and 2) the impact of an induced acute period of sedentary behavior on neuro-immune-endocrine status.engAllostatic LoadPhysical InactivityMediterranean MealExercise ChallengeGenotoxicidade AmbientalMeal-exercise challenge and physical activity reduction impact on immunity and inflammation (MERIIT trial)journal article10.1016/j.conctc.2018.05.010
