Abstract
The purpose of this study was to investigate the effects of a diet supplemented with garlic extract and vitamin B complex on fatigue recovery from swimming load test in rats. Sprague-Dawley rats were divided into a non-swimming control group (Normal) and swimming load test groups. Swimming load test groups were re-divided into swimming control group (Control), 1% of 60 brix garlic extract fed group (SG), vitamin B complex twice mixture fed group (SV) and 1% of 60 brix garlic extract and vitamin B group twice mixture fed group (SGV). Concentration of plasma lipids and glucose were determined in the rats post-swimming. Concentration of plasma glucose, total lipid, total cholesterol and triglyceride were significantly increased in the control group compared to the non-swimming control group (p mg/dl) group. LDL-cholesterol concentration was the highest in the control group, but it was decreased significantly in the SGV group. In conclusion, this study demonstrates that a diet supplemented with 1% 60 brix garlic extract and vitamin B group twice mixture has beneficial effects on fatigue recovery in swimming load tests.
