Study Summary

This trial is testing if a substance released from muscles during exercise can cause mast cells to release their contents.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for healthy adults aged 18-40 who have not been diagnosed with cardiovascular disease, diabetes, autonomic disorders, or asthma. Participants should not smoke or use nicotine and must not be on any antihistamines or ongoing medical therapy (except birth control). They cannot be pregnant, breastfeeding, planning pregnancy soon, highly active physically, overweight (BMI over 28), non-English speaking, or have high blood pressure.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study examines how histamine helps the body adapt to exercise by comparing the effects of aerobic exercise alone versus combined resistance and aerobic exercise. It also tests the impact of blocking histamine with a drug called alpha-FMH and using common antihistamines after exercising.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Potential side effects may include reactions to alpha-FMH such as headaches or nausea; typical antihistamine side effects like drowsiness or dry mouth; and general exercise-related discomforts including muscle soreness.
