        Introduction: Physical activity and exercise influences energy metabolism in human subjects by increasing activity-induced energy expenditure and resting metabolic rate for several hours after exercise. The effect of Pilates exercise on thyroid function is not well known. Thus the purpose of present study was to examine the effect of eight-week Pilates exercise on triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in sedentary women. Material & Methods: Twenty two sedentary women aged between 25 to 40 years old participated in this study as the subject. The subjects were divided into Pilates group (n=11) or control group (n=11) randomly. The subjects in the Pilates group performed 60 min Pilates exercise, 3 times a week for 8 weeks. Body composition parameters, T3, T4 and TSH concentrations were measured before and after the intervention. Results: The results showed body fat percent was reduced after Pilates exercise (P<0.05), however for T3, T4, TSH concentrations no significant changes were observed. Conclusions: In summary, the results suggest Pilates exercise utilized in this study had not significant effect on thyroid function in sedentary women. پرونده مقاله

        Introduction: Yoga may have a role in revitalizing thyroid function there are few studies on the effects of yoga on thyroid function. The aim of present study was to investigate the effect of eight weeks yoga program on triiodothyronine (T3), thyroxine (T4) and thyroid stimulating hormone (TSH) in young sedentary women. Material & Methods: Twenty sedentary women aged between 20 to 40 years old participated in this study as the subject. The subjects were divided into yoga group (n=10) or control group (n=10) randomly. The subjects in the yoga group underwent 90 min hatha yoga practices daily, 3 times a week for 8 weeks, whereas control group continued their usual routine activities. Basal level of serum T3, T4 and TSH were measured before commencement and after 8 weeks of yogic training. Results: The results indicated that T3 decreases significantly in the control group (t = ‒ 2.02, P = 0.05); however, there was no significant change in T4 (t = ‒ 0.3, P = 0.7) or TSH (t = 0.15, P = 0.8) in any of the two groups over the 8 weeks period. Conclusions: In summary, the results suggest yoga training utilized in this study had not significant effect on thyroid function in sedentary women. پرونده مقاله

        The aim of the present study was to investigate the effect of caraway and black seed supplementation on the physiological responses, antioxidant, serum, and hematological parameters of Sanjabi lambs. 18 Sanjabi male lambs were randomly assigned to three dietary treatments: (i) basal diet (control); (ii) basal diet with added 30 grams black seed/kg dry matter (DM); and (iii) with added 30 grams caraway/kg DM. The lambs fed caraway diet had higher final body weight than that of the control (P&lt;0.05). Lambs fed black seed diet had lower alanine aminotransferase and cholesterol concentrations than those of the controls (P&lt;0.05). Lambs fed caraway diet had lower blood malondialdehyde compared with the control (P&lt;0.05). In conclusion, caraway and black seed supplements could improve growth performance and antioxidant parameters in fattening lambs. پرونده مقاله
