Abstract

The case of a 60 years old well trained marathon runner is discussed. He used to consume large quantities of liquorice, resulting in intoxication by glycyrrhinic acid, that has an action of the mineralocorticoid type with relevant hypokaliaemia. A short while after these results still with a lower potassium rate than normal, the above mentioned won the Italian senior marathon championships (20 km heats in 1 h 21 min). The multiple factors that interacted in maintaining his muscular performance are taken into consideration, mainly with regard to their effects on kaliaemia. These are: an increase in the circulating catecholamines, renin-angiotension-aldosterone system, K-canrenoate. Verf.-Referat
