Abstract

Abstract Backgrounds and Objectives The use of anti-inflammatory supplements is important in improving the executive function of obese people. This research aims to investigate the effect of 6 weeks of aerobic exercise with moderate intensity as well as the consumption of nanocurcumin on IL1β, nitric oxide (NO), and depression in women aged 60–65 with metabolic syndrome. Materials and Methods Fourty-four women with metabolic syndrome were randomly selected and divided into four groups of 10 based on their use of nanocurcumin supplement. The treatment included the training (T), nanocurcumin (N), training + nanocurcumin (TN), and the control groups. The groups exposed to training performed aerobic exercise for 6 weeks (three sessions per week). Blood samples were obtained before and after the training period for antioxidant indicators and lipid degradation measurement. Also, the Beck anxiety questionnaire was used for evaluating levels of anxiety. T-test and one-way analysis of variance (ANOVA) tests were used for the assessment of within-group and between-group differences, respectively. Results There was a significant difference in IL1β, NO, and depression before and after exercise in all three experimental groups (p ≤ 0.05). Also, the results showed a significant difference in the level of NO and depression in the experimental groups. The highest decrease in these variables was observed in the T and TN groups (p ≤ 0.05). Conclusion These findings indicated that 6-week nanocurcumin supplementation with aerobic training is a suitable method for reducing IL1β, NO, and depression, preventing metabolic, cardiovascular, and inflammatory diseases in women with metabolic syndrome.
