In this review, it is aimed to discuss the possible
interactions between renin-angiotensin-aldosterone system and exercise for
health and performance and to present new literature on this subject. From this
point of view, an analysis of the experimental and clinical studies on this subject
has been made. Physical exercise leads to a number of changes in the plasma
levels of renin, angiotensin, and aldosterone, which represent the adaptation
of the human body to a new biological environment. Significant (P <0.05)
increases occur in the levels of plasma renin, angiotensin and aldosterone
especially in submaximal and maximal exercise intensity. Hormone levels return
to normal with the end of the exercise. Factors such as age and gender, menstrual
cycle, salt intake, posture, thermal tension, elevation, training, type of
exercise have a major impact on the response of the RAA system to exercise. A
relationship between physical activity and permanent endocrine changes could
not be demonstrated.
