Effect of short-term Resvin supplementation on total antioxidant capacity super oxide dismutase, and creatine kinase in elite women volleyball players

An imbalance between free radical production and antioxidant defense system components can lead to oxidative stress. Resvin is an antioxidant plant that can inhibit reactive oxygen (RO). This study determined the effect of short-term Resvin supplementation on the total serum antioxidant capacity (TAC)، superoxide dismutase (SOD) and creatine kinase (CK) in elite women volleyball players. This study was a randomized، placebo-controlled experimental trial. Twenty elite volleyball players were divided into two groups: consumption of Resvin (400 mg/d) or a placebo (lactose) for 14 d. TAC، FRAP method and SOD were measured using a spectrophotometer and ELISA kits. The data was analyzed using SPSS15 software and results were considered significant at p < 0. 05. TAC and SOD levels increased significantly for the Resvin group (0. 67 ± 0. 15 mmol/L to 0. 41 ± 0. 10 mmol/L، p < 0. 05). CK levels decreased significantly in this group (186. 80 ± 90/07 to 140. 60 ± 39. 36 IU/L). Based on current findings، it can be concluded that the consumption of Resvin supplements can help prevent muscle damage while improving antioxidant indicators and may help improve recovery.
