Effect of 12-Week Body Pump with Consumption of Cinnamon and Honey on Resistin, Visfatin and Insulin Resistance in Overweight Children
Prevention of obesity and overweight and the associated risk factors such as insulin resistance from an early age, is of particular importance. The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of 12-week Body Pump and combination of Cinnamon and Honey on resistin, visfatin and insulin resistance in overweight children.
The present applied and quasi-experimental research Were conducted on 50 overweight children aged 9 to 11 years, who were randomly assigned into five groups: Body Pump, Body Pump+honey, Body Pump+cinnamon, Body Pump+combination of honey and cinnamon; and control (each group of 10). Interventions were performed for 12 weeks. 24 hours before and 48 hours after intervention, while measuring the side variables, the blood samples were taken from all subjects to measure resistin, visfatin, glucose and insulin, and to calculate insulin resistance. In order to compare the changes of variables in the five study groups and in two blood sampling times (pre-test and post-test), inter-within-subjects, analysis of variance was used in a 5 2 2 design (5 groups and 4 times).
The results showed that visfatin, glucose, insulin and insulin resistance decreased significantly in the four intervention groups comparing to the control group (P <0.05). But the difference in visfatin, glucose, insulin and insulin resistance was not significant between the four intervention groups (P> 0.05). There was no significant difference between resistin changes in the five groups (P = 0.76).
According to the research results, it is likely that a 12-week Body Pump exercise with reduced visfatin and insulin resistance (possibly due to a decrease in the body fat percentage) would lead to improved levels of well-being and prevention of diabetes in overweight children aged 9-11years; however, cinnamon, honey and their combination do not seem to have a synergistic effect.
