Abstract

This study aimed to assess the effect of polyphenols in turkey berry fruits on level of antioxidant enzyme (erythrocyte superoxide dismutation [SOD]) and oxidative stress marker (serum 8-isoprostane) in obese adult women. The study was quasi experimental trial with cross-over design. Eight obese women subjects in Benteng Village-Ciampea, Bogor District, West Java were randomly assigned to a control group (n=4), and a turkey berry group (n=4) for 2 x 1 week daily treatment with a one week wash-out period between treatment periods. Turkey berry group consumed home diet and ±160 g of cooked turkey berry (as a side dish or snack) while the control group consumed only home diet. A food record consumption data was collected twice each week. Blood samples were obtained in the morning at day 1, 8, 15, and 22 of interventions and analyzed for the level of erythrocyte SOD and serum 8-isoprostane. The results showed that the different levels of erythrocyte SOD between post and pre intervention on turkey berry groups was not significantly different compared to the control group (p=0.607). Whereas, the different level of serum 8-isoprostane between post and pre intervention on turkey berry group in which decreasing was significantly different from the level on control group which was increasing (p<0.05). It seems that daily consumption of cooked turkey berry fruits can improve oxidative stress condition.

Abstract

The objective of this study is to determine the effects of vegetarianism (vegan and semi-vegetarian) among athletes on their nutrient sufficiency and performance. This review is conducted with three steps, namely: literature search and screening; data extraction and analysis; and writing the literature review. The results show that athletes practicing a vegetarian diet may be at a greater risk of nutritional inadequacy especially proteins, essential fatty acids, iron, zinc, calcium, iodine, vitamin D, and vitamin B12. Whilst the effect of vegetarian practice in athletes’ performance has no significant difference with omnivore athletes. vegetarian athletes should plan a well-planned diet to meet the recommendations of macro and micronutrients for the training and recovery phase. At last, vegetarianism in athletes does not affect their performance and their nutritional sufficiency can be maintained by planning well-balanced dietary consumption. Further research is required to broaden our understanding of vegetarianism in athletes
