Abstract

Background and Objectives: Performing body activities such as eccentric exercises have positive effect on weight loss but canalso lead to increasing muscle injury and increase in inflammatory indices and enzymes in the blood. Ginger supplement reduce inflammation and pain. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of short-term consumption of ginger supplementation on serum levels, high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (HSCRP) and creatine kinase (CK) resulting from eccentric exercise.
Subjects and Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 22 overweight female student from Shahid Chamran University were randomly divided into two groups supplement (n=12, the age range 25.75 ± 0.46, BMI 27.32 ± 0.43) and placebo (n=10, the age range 25.90 ± 0.70, BMI 26.11  ±0.69). Supplement group consumed or before food 2 g of supplement ginger powder daily for two weeks. The exercise protocol performed including two exhaustive eccentric exercise (negative slope on a treadmill, one session before one session after two weeks of supplementation) with an initial speed of 4 mph and an initial gradient was 2%. The t-test and analysis of variance were used by analysis.
Results: The results showed that eccentric exercise increased levels of HSCRP and CK after the exercise activities (P<0/05). Two weeks of ginger supplementation had no significant effect on the levels of HSCRP and CK (P≥ 0/05).
Conclusion: The daily consumption of ginger supplements can reduce inflammation and muscle damage caused by exercise.
