title: [Antioxidant system as a perspective direction in the assessment of the state and prognosis of population health].
abstract: The study of blood serum of persons falling under the category of people with high and very high physical activity, revealed the increase of the production of the stress hormone cortisol, that indicates to the prevalence of catabolic processes in the body, the decrease in saturation with zinc, copper, iron, disturbing the activity of enzyme link, and the reduction of the saturation of the body with vitamins A and E that causes the deterioration of the state of low-molecular link of antioxidant protection. Significant physical loads contributed to the accumulation of lipid peroxidation products, by leading to oxidative stress, which was an adverse predictor of health. The obtained data prove that the indices of the state of the antioxidant system are a marker of health and criteria of population life quality.
