Genotyping, Xanthine, Caffeine consumption
The objective of this article was to verify the interaction of CYP1A2 163 C>A polymorphism in the consumption of caffeine-containing foods in physically active men. And for this, 71 young people and adults who participated in sports projects linked to the Sports Science Laboratory were evaluated. A questionnaire on caffeine consumption obtained through the chemical composition table was applied. Blood collection of the athletes was performed for DNA extraction, and were later analyzed using the Anova One Way test for statistical analysis. The habits of caffeine consumption can influence the perception of its consumption, and some people may have greater tolerance to the substance and consume higher dosages without realizing it.
