Abstract

Background & aim: Recent studies have shown that inflammation-induced obesity is considered as a risk factor for cardiovascular disease. Therefore, the purpose of this study was to evaluate the effects of 6 weeks of Lemon-Garlic Supplementation and aerobic exercise on plasma levels of CRP and Fibrinogen in Overweight men. Methods: In this semi experimental study 32 non-athletic Overweight men from Qom University in the year 2017, were randomly assigned into four groups of 8, supplemented (8 subjects), Exercise + complement (7 subjects) and control (n = 9 subjects). The control group did not undergo any training and Supplementation during 6 weeks. The exercise, and the exercise plus complement groups performed 6 weeks of Aerobic Training with an intensity of 60-74% of maximum heart rate and 3 sessions per week. The supplements and exercise + complement groups consumed 6 weeks of Garlic-Lemon. Blood sampling was performed to measure CRP and Fibrinogen and general tests including height, weight, fat percentage, waist to hip ratio in two stages before and 48 hours after the last training session in fasting conditions. The t-test was used to examine the differences between groups and one-way ANOVA was used to examine the differences between groups. Results: A significant decrease in fat percentage was observed in the Supplementation group (p=0. 035). Also, the amount of CRP and Fibrinogen in the exercise-supplement group and the supplement group decreased significantly after this period. However, CRP levels in the supplementary group decreased by 27%, in the supplemental group by 26%, Fibrinogen levels in the complementary group by 38% and in the supplemental group by 29%, respectively. Conclusion: Considering the significant decrease in the amount of inflammatory markers in this study, it appeared that combination of aerobic exercise and Supplementation of lemon – garlic juice may be able to improve these parameters and reduce the risk of cardiovascular disease in obese individuals.
