Abstract

Introduction: On of the main causes of diabetes are increased free radicals and decreased antioxidants. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of resistance training with supplementation of pomegranate juice on oxidative / antioxidant factors and lipid profile in women with type 2 diabetes. Methods: A sample of 40 women with type 2 diabetes mellitus aged 40-55 years was selected randomly. They were randomly divided into four groups: control (n=10), resistance group (n=10), water use group Pomegranate (10 people), resistance training group and pomegranate juice consumption (10 people). The experimental group performed eight sessions of resistance training for up to eight weeks, each week with a 30% maximum repeat rate, and at the end of the eighth week, 80% of the maximum replication was recorded, and the pomegranate group consumed 100 cc of pomegranate per day. The results of the study were analyzed by one-way ANOVA with a significant level (P>0.05). Results: The results showed that eight weeks of resistance training plus pomegranate juice significantly increased the levels of SOD (P=0.000) (GPX) (P=0.000) and decreased significantly MDA (P=0.0001), as well as a significant decrease in LDL levels (P=0.000) and a significant increase in HDL levels (P=0.000) in women with type 2 diabetes. Conclusion: The results showed that eight weeks of resistance training, along with pomegranate juice, reduced the oxidative factors and increased anxiolytic indices in women with type 2 diabetes.
