The aim of this study was to determine the effect of eight weeks of regular exercise training and Ganoderma supplementation on glycemic control in children with type 1 diabetes. Subjects and Methods In this quasi-experimental study, 40 boys with type 1 diabetes were selected and divided into 4 groups: 1) exercise, 2) supplement, 3) exercise & supplement 4) control. Exercises included 8 weeks, 3 sessions per week and each training session included selected exercises training. Ganoderma lucidum consumption for daily consumption of 20 grams of a brewed drink was consumed. Fasting blood sampling was performed 48 hours before and 72 hours after the intervention. Results A significant decrease was observed in 2Hour Post Prandial Glucose in the exercise & supplement group compared to the control group (P=0.018). Also Significant decrease was observed in HbA1c level in exercise (P=0.031) and exercise & supplement (P=0.043) compared to the control group.
