The present study aims to explore whether there is a relationship between the levels of alanine transaminase (ALT) and aspartate transaminase (AST) enzymes and physical activity and diet from the perspective of Iranian traditional medicine to achieve enzymatic balance.
The research design is quasi-experimental with three experimental groups and one control group, and includes pre-test and post-test assessments. The sample population consisted of 60 young men aged between 20-40 years attending Asou Sports Club in Ahvaz, who were randomly divided into four 15-member groups, including aerobic exercise, nutrition, combined aerobic exercise and nutrition, and control. The aerobic group received eight weeks of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise, consisting of 3 sessions per week, each lasting 45 minutes at 64%-76% of maximum heart rate. Participants were recommended to take mood assessment tests and a personalized diet plan. Individuals with a cold temperament were eligible to participate in the study. The exercise and nutrition group received both interventions, while the control group received no intervention. Blood levels of ALT and AST were measured at a laboratory. Descriptive indices and statistical tests such as multiple and multivariate covariate analyses were used to analyze the data.
The results showed that eight weeks of moderate-intensity aerobic exercise and nutrition with traditional Iranian medicine approach had a significant effect on ALT and AST levels in young boys, resulting in an improved regulation of these enzymes (P < .05).
The implementation of dietary restrictions and substitutes, along with appropriate aerobic activities, can be effective in regulating liver enzymes.
本研究旨在从伊朗传统医学的角度探讨丙氨酸转氨酶(ALT)和天冬氨酸转氨酶(AST)酶的水平与体力活动和饮食之间的关系,以达到酶的平衡。
研究设计为具有三个实验组和一个对照组的准实验设计,包括前测和后测评估。样本人群由 60 名年龄在 20-40 岁之间的年轻男性组成,他们均来自阿瓦士 Asou 体育俱乐部,这些人被随机分为四组,每组 15 人,包括有氧运动组、营养组、有氧运动和营养相结合组以及对照组。有氧运动组接受八周的中等强度有氧运动,每周 3 次,每次 45 分钟,运动强度为最大心率的 64%-76%。建议参与者进行情绪评估测试和个性化饮食计划。具有冷体质的个体有资格参加研究。运动和营养组接受了这两种干预措施,而对照组则没有接受任何干预。在实验室测量 ALT 和 AST 的血液水平。使用描述性指标和统计检验(如多元协方差分析)来分析数据。
结果表明,八周的中等强度有氧运动和具有伊朗传统医学方法的营养干预对年轻男孩的 ALT 和 AST 水平有显著影响,导致这些酶的调节得到改善(P<0.05)。
实施饮食限制和替代物以及适当的有氧运动可以有效调节肝酶。
