The effect of eight weeks of aerobic training along with garlic on anxiety and depression in rats exposed to electromagnetic wave with WIFI

Electromagnetic waves around us lead to psychological disorders. Although the role of exercise and herbs in improving mental health has been shown, the interactive effect of aerobic exercise and garlic supplementation on the nervous system under harmful electromagnetic waves is unknown. Therefore, the aim of this study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks of endurance training with garlic extract on rats exposed to electromagnetic radiation emitted from a wifi modem.

In this experimental trial, 40 eight-week-old male rats weighing 150-200 g were randomly divided into five groups: (1) control (Co), (2) control under WIFI electromagnetic radiation, (WIFI) (3) aerobic exercise + WIFI (AT + WIFI) (4) Garlic extract + WIFI (Al + WIFI) and (5) Aerobic exercise + Garlic extract + WIFI (AT + Al + WIFI) were divided. Groups 2-5 were exposed to 2.45 GHz radiation emitted from a WIFI modem for 1 hour a day for eight weeks. Groups 3 and 5 performed aerobic exercise for eight weeks, three sessions per week at a rate of 18-12 m / min, and groups 4 and 5 received 800 mg / kg of garlic aqueous extract daily in drinking water.

Aerobic exercise and garlic supplementation had a significant effect on reducing depression (P≤0.05) and anxiety (P≤0.05) in rats exposed to WIFI electromagnetic radiation, but garlic exercise and supplementation had an interactive effect on reducing anxiety and depression in rats. They are not desert (P≥0.05).

It seems that aerobic exercise and consumption of garlic extract from separate pathways and individually have anti-anxiety and anti-depressant effects in rats under WIFI electromagnetic radiation.
