Article Synopsis
- The study explores how the timing of intense exercise (morning vs. evening) affects inflammatory responses, specifically the release of the cytokine Interleukin-6 (IL-6) in healthy males.
- Although they found significant time-of-day differences in IL-6 levels in control participants (not exercising), those who exercised showed no changes in IL-6 post-workout.
- Cortisol levels were influenced by the timing of exercise, but the overall findings suggest that the time of day does not significantly impact IL-6 release in trained individuals.
