Brief Summary

Recently, researchers have paid attention to the development of new products such as supplements food and nutraceuticals for identify and develop integrative therapies to be used in cardiovascular disease. As suggested by literature, some nutritional components (creatine, ribose) can enhance the fundamental energy levels for the functioning of the heart muscle and can enhance the body's antioxidant capacity through the reduction in free radicals activity, one of the main pathogenic mechanisms of these diseases. In this context, the investigators have developed a research with the principal purpose to establish whether a supplement of creatine and ribose can improve the total work capacity during exercise in a population of patients with known ischemic heart disease.
