Background & aim Whey protein (WP) is one of the well-known dairy driven products to help people to change their weight and body composition (BC). This study aimed to investigate the effect of WP on weight and BC on every published RCT on all populations. Methods A systematic review of the literature was undertaken to identify RCTs that examined t...

Abstract Background A large number of studies have investigated the association of the Mediterranean and DASH diets with psychological health as well as sleep related outcomes. However, only a few number of studies have examined the association of their newly proposed hybrid, Mediterranean-DASH Intervention for Neurodegenerative Delay (MIND) dietar...

PurposeCardiac miRNAs are the recently discovered key modulators of gene expression in the heart which have been shown to contribute to both transcriptional and post-transcriptional regulation in diabetic cardiomyopathy. The aim of this study was to evaluate the protective effects of interval and continuous aerobic training on diabetic hearts by ex...

Background: Due to long-term use of computers and not maintaining the correct position and angle of the body while working with it, various skeletal and muscular problems and pain in the neck area occurs. This study aims to use a biofeedbck system to alert the computer users of an inappropriate angle of their necks, and as a result help them to es...

Objective This study sought to investigate the effect of Spirulina on cardiometabolic risk factors, oxidative stress biomarkers, glycemic profile, and liver enzymes in nonalcoholic fatty liver disease (NAFLD) patients. Methods This randomized, double-blind clinical trial was performed on 46 NAFLD patients. Subjects were allocated to consume either...

The objective of the present work was to encapsulate ginger essential oil (GEO) into chitosan‐based microparticles (CMPs) using the ionic gelation method. The fabricated microparticles showed a particle size range of 342 to 531 nm with a zeta potential of 23.4 to 45.4 mV. Fourier transform infrared (FTIR) analysis confirmed a successful encapsulati...

PurposeOverweight can lead to the down-regulation of insulin sensitivity and cytokine profile. In this regard, non-pharmacological interventions such as exercise and supplementation are recommended. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the synergistic effect of Chlorella vulgaris supplementation with acute eccentric exercise on serum...

PurposeThis study aims to investigate the effect of high-intensity interval training (HIIT) on gene expression of MicroRNA-126 (miR-126) and serum concentration of vascular endothelial growth factor/ sprouty related EVH1 domain containing 1/ rapidly accelerated fibrosarcoma 1 (VEGF/Spred-1/Raf-1) proteins effective in cardiac tissue angiogenesis of...

Background and Objective: A basic intervention to reduce prevalence of the disease is educating healthy lifestyle particularly for those who are at risk. Present study aimed to assess the effectiveness of two methods of in-situ training and text messaging on blood pressure and lifestyle in a number of military forces susceptible to hypertension. Me...

Background: The risk of developing chronic diseases such as diabetes, cardiovascular disease, dyslipidemia, and stroke is increased following an outbreak of metabolic syndrome. Whey protein can play a major role in preventing metabolic syndrome. Objective: This study was conducted to systematically evaluate the effect of whey protein on the comp...
