Fecal Bile Acid Concentration in Distance Runners W. H. F. Sutherland, E. R. Nye, D. I Macfarlane, M C. Robertson, S. A. Williamson Departments of Medicine and Physical Education, University of Otago, Dunedin, New Zealand
Abstract
bile acids in the feces have been associated with low incidence of colon cancer in populations (5, 16, 19). Whether or not re-

training is unknown.
The aim of the present study was to compare fecal bile acid concentrations between distance runners and sedentary men.
Accepted after revision: January 25, 1991
Materials and Methods
Fecal bile acid concentration, fecal charac-
teristics, bowel habits and habitual food intake were measured in male distance runners (n = 14) and sedentary men (n = 14). Fecal bile acid concentration was significantly (p
