Abstract
Lipid profile and CRP are among the most important inflammatory markers prognosticating cardiovascular diseases. The present study aims to investigate effects of probiotic yogurt drink on lipid profile, CRP and records of normal-weight aerobic athletes. Thirty convenient athletes with similar BMIs (22± 2) were randomly put into two groups of ordinary and probiotic yogurt drinks. Their blood samples were taken before and after the experiment and the CRP and lipid profile were calculated through F and t (Satterwhite and paired) tests. Results revealed that both types of yogurt drink significantly increase HDL and decrease CRP; yet, the decreasing effects of CRP on athletes' records were significantly higher in probiotic group (-28 seconds) compared to the ordinary drink group (-2 seconds). Probiotic yogurt drink has a greater effect on decreasing serum CRP, increasing HDL and VO2MAX and improving athletes' records.DOI: http://dx.doi.org/10.3126/ijls.v9i4.12672
