Citat:
The aim of this study was to analyze the effects of eight weeks of CLA supplementation associated with aerobic exercise on body fat and lipid profile in obese women. We performed a randomized, double-blinded and placebo-controlled trial with 28 obese women who received 3.2 g/d of CLA or 4 g/d of olive oil (placebo group) while performing an 8-week protocol of aerobic exercise. Dietary intake (food record), body fat (DXA) and biochemical analysis (blood sample) were assessed before and after the intervention period. Independent of CLA supplementation, both groups improved (p < 0.05) oxygen uptake (CLA: 13.2%; PLC: 14.8%), trunk fat (CLA: -1.0%; PLC: -0.5%), leg fat (CLA: -1.0%; PLC: -1.6%) and total body fat (CLA: -1.7%; PLC: -1.3%) after the 8 week intervention. No main effect or group by time interaction was found for total cholesterol, triglycerides, and plasma lipoproteins (p > 0.05). We conclude that CLA supplementation associated with aerobic exercise has no effect on body fat reduction and lipid profile improvements over placebo in young adult obese women.
