<![CDATA[Background Individuals experience varying levels of fatigue and stamina. Moringa oleifera Lam. Seed extract relieves fatigue due to its high levels of antioxidants and glucosinolate glucomoringin, which reduces intracellular oxidative stress. Objectives This study aimed to determine the effectiveness of infusion of M. oleifera seed as a stamina stimulator in mice. Methods This experiment used 25 male mice divided into five groups (five mice in each group), consisting of M. oleifera seed infusion at doses of 0, 1, 3, and 5 g/kg BW as the negative control and treatment groups, and caffeine at a dose of 6.5 mg/kg BW as the positive control group. Stamina effectiveness was evaluated using a swimming endurance test that measured swimming duration and physiological parameters every 15 min for 2 h after administration. Data were analyzed using analysis of variance (ANOVA) followed by Tukey’s test. Results M. oleifera seed infusion at a dose of 3 g/kg BW had the shortest swimming duration difference (Δ) value, with no difference compared to the 5 g/kg BW and caffeine groups, but was significantly different (P<0.05) compared to the 0 and 1 g/kg BW groups. M. oleifera seed infusion at a dose of 3 g/kg BW also showed a lower delta value for body surface temperature and heartbeat rate compared to the negative control, and a lower delta value for the respiratory rate compared to the 5 g/kg BW group. Conclusion M. oleifera seed infusion potentially maintains stamina performance in mice at a dose of 3 g/kg BW.]]>
