Effects of two different Omega-3 Fatty Acids doses on resting levels of selected immune system factors in elite karate athletes
Journal Title: International Research Journal of Applied and Basic Sciences - Year 2013, Vol 6, Issue 6
Abstract
The aim of this study was to investigate the effects of two different doses of Omega-3 supplementation on Interlokin10 and TNF? levels in elite karate players. The study design was a randomized, double-blind one. Using baseline data on elite karate athletes, the authors examined the effects of omega-3 (1.2 mg/lit) and omega-3 (1.8 mg/lit) on Interlokin10 and TNF? levels. The interactions between immune and inflammatory cells are mediated in large part by proteins, termed interleukins (IL), that are able to promote cell growth, differentiation and functional Activation. Production of appropriate amounts of TNF, IL10 is beneficial in response to infection, but in inappropriate amounts or overproduction can be dangerous and these cytokines, especially TNF, are implicated in causing some of the pathological responses that occur in inflammatory conditions. There is also a strong link between lipids, lipoproteins and inflammation, It was suggested that Consumption of omega-3 (1.2, 1.8 mg/lit) didn’t influence significantly interlokin10 (p=0.79) and TNF-? following study intervention (p =0.76). immune parameters such as interlukin10 and TNF-? among professional athletes weren’t influenced by omega-3 intake.
