The Effect Of Chlorella Supplementation On Exercise Performance And Inflammation-related Blood Cells After Dehydration.: 3265 Board #170 June 2 2

... At the end of the study, there was a significant decrease in TNF-α levels compared to the placebo group [23]. In another study, Lin et al. stated that chlorella supplement improves anaerobic exercise capacity and also reduces post-dehydration muscle inflammation after exercise training [24]. Farther more, Ebrahimi et al. observed weight-loss in groups that took this supplement [25]. ...

... Horii et al. investigated glycolytic and oxidative capacities in rats and showed that high-intensity exercise along with using chlorella vulgaris improves glycolytic and oxidative capacities [27]. Lin et al. stated that Chlorella vulgaris supplement anaerobic exercise capacity and also reduces muscle inflammation following exercise [24]. Lee [22]. ...

... Reducing fat and improving insulin metabolism following exercise, along with supplementation with chlorella supplements, may be involved in lowering levels of inflammatory cytokines such as IL-6 [19]. Researchers believe that exercise, especially intense exercise causes autohypnosis or damage to muscle and plays an effective role in release of various substances such as intracellular proteins and cytokines [24], that IL-6 is one of the pro-and anti-inflammatory cytokines that has controlling effect on T-regulatory cells and affects the function of other inflammatory cells. Adipose tissue high levels of IL-6 so high production and secretion of IL-6 from adipose tissue causes negative regulation of metabolism and deficiency in muscle glycogen synthesis in overweight people, which ultimately plays an important role in increasing insulin resistance in body; thus, losing weight and fat following exercise will be associated with a decrease in IL-6 and consequently insulin resistance, overweight people generally have higher plasma concentrations of inflammatory markers (parameters) compared to normal people. ...
