Background and Aim: The aim was to evaluate the effects of aerobic training and vitamin D (VitD) supplementation on blood levels of D (OH) 25, the metabolic risk factors and memory function in women complicated with metabolic syndrome.
Material and Method: In this quasi-experimental study, 40 volunteer female patients (45-60 years) were divided into four groups, including training and VitD group (Combination group), training and placebo group, VitD group and placebo group. Training groups participated in eight weeks of aerobic training (walking and jogging, three sessions per week, 60 min/sesssion at 50 to 60% of MHR). VitD (50000 units, once weekly) or placebo (paraffine) pills were supplemented in a double blinded order. Short-term (SM) and mid-term (MM) memory, blood pressure, as well as the blood levels of D(OH)25, glucose, TG and HDL were measured before and after the intervention period. The data were analyzed using one-way ANOVA, two-ways ANOVA or paired samples t test, according to necessity.
Results: All the three interventions reduced blood TG and overall metabolic risk (Z score) and increased plasma HDL as well as both SM and MM performance, while waist circumference (WC), mean atrial pressure and FBS only reduced in the training groups (P<0.05). Serum level of D(OH)25 increased just in supplementation groups (P<0.05). FBS, WC, SM, and MM increased in Combination group compared to VitD group (P<0.05).
Conclusion: The results showed that Vit D supplementation could fortify the beneficial effects of physical training on memory function and metabolic control in the patients with VitD deficiency. However, the supplementation is mandatory to increase serum VitD level in Metabolic syndrome patients.
