The effect of Blueberry Consumption and High Intensity Interval Training on Fibrinolysis factors plasma levels in inactive obese menopausal women

The purpose of this study was to investigate the effect of Blueberry Consumption and high intensity interval training on plasma levels of TPA and PAI-1 in inactive obese menopausal women. Twenty four overweight and obese postmenopausal women were randomly into four groups including: 1.exterem periodic exercise +placebo 2. Use of blueberries supplement 3. High intensity interval training +use of blueberries supplement 4. Control group. High intensity interval training group (HIIT) were performed for 8 weeks and 3 session per week and consumers of blueberries supplement, supplement blueberries, water –soluble in water for 8 weeks at a dose of 50 g per day used. Physical composition, lipid profiles and plasma levels of tPA and PAI-1 were measured in 2 stages of pre and post –test. The result of the data analysis showed that after 8 weeks, HDL, TG changes in high intensity interval training group with placebo (P<0.05). However, VLDL, PAI-1 changes in high intensity interval training with placebo(HIIT+P) and also in high intensity interval training with supplementation of blueberries (HIIT+S) and cholesterol changes in the HIIT+P group and changes in HDL and VLDL were not significant in the HIIT +S group compared to placebo (P< 0.05). High intensity interval training with and without supplementation of blueberries play an effective role in reducing PAI-1 and improving lipid profiles in inactive obese menopausal women , however, do not effect plasma TPA changes.
