Abstract

Introduction: The aim of this study is to determine the effects of a short-term nigella sativa supplementation on superoxide dismutase and malondialdehyde levels in response to a boat of aerobic exercise in male volleyball players.
Methods: 13 mail volleyball player students of Tabriz University of Medical Sciences (aged 22±2 years, body fat 15±8% and VO2max= 45±7 ml/kg/min) participated in this study. At the beginning all subjects participated in an aerobic exercise protocol with 75% VO2max on the treadmill for 30 minutes and then received 43mg/kg/d nigella sativa powder for 21 days. After 21 days of supplementation period, the protocol was repeated. Blood samples were obtained before and after each protocol to determine malondialdehyde, superoxide dismutase and Lactate. Data were analyzed by ANOVA repeated measure and LSD tests using SPSS20 at α≤0.05.
Results: The results showed that one bout aerobic exercise with increasing level of lactate values necessary to create the oxidative pressure and SOD values also has increased. Was also shown, short-term nigella sativa supplementation had no significant impact on the levels of base of Malone dialdehyde (P 0.05 >) But although supplementation had no effect on the SOD level in exercise response it before and after short-term nigella sativa supplementation (05/0 <P), baseline SOD levels at rest decreased.(P = 0.034).

Conclusion: These data indicate that aerobic exercise can increase blood biomarkers of oxidative stress and supplementation with nigella sativa could not significantly attenuate exercise-induced oxidative stress in men.
