Introduction: Physical inactivity is related to systemic inflammation and increased risk of chronic diseases. In this regard, the aim of this research was to investigate the interactive effect of six weeks of Total Body Resistance Exercise (TRX) training and oral consumption of aqueous mango tree leaf extract on interleukin-1β and anthropometric indices of overweight male students with weight and obesity who were inactive.
Methods: In this semi-experimental research, 48 overweight and inactive obese male students within an age range of 20-25 years were purposefully selected and randomly divided into four groups of 12, namely control, extract, exercise, and exercise + extract. For six weeks (three sessions per week), they performed TRX exercises and took 500 mg capsules containing mango leaf extract twice a day before lunch and dinner. Blood samples were taken 24 h before and 48 h after the last training session. Interleukin-1 beta serum level was measured by ELISA method using the human kit. Data were analyzed using the dependent t-test and one-way analysis of variance in SPSS software (version 25). A significance level of less than 0.05 was considered statistically significant.
Result: A significant difference was observed in the levels of interleukin-1b in the exercise, exercise + extract, and extract groups, compared to the pre-test stage (P=0.001). The pre- and post-test differences between the groups using one-way analysis of variance on weight, fat percentage, body mass index, and interleukin-1b levels showed a significant difference among the research groups (P<0.05 between groups).
Conclusion: Six weeks of TRX training and consumption of mango leaf extract may have a positive effect on weight loss, fat percentage, body mass index, and interleukin-1 beta serum levels. Moreover, one of the ways to control inflammation is to do TRX exercises accompanied by the consumption of mango leaf extract.
