Background and Objectives: Chamomile has beneficial effects on ameliorating obesity, similar to the effects of exercise training. This study was designed to evaluate the effect of eight weeks aerobic interval-resistance training combined with chamomile consumption on body Composition and glucose homeostasis in overweight and obese women.
Materials and Methods: In this randomised clinical trial study conducted in Khomam city in 2018, 29 overweight and obese women (overweight=11 and obese=18) were randomly selected and divided into three groups including training (65 min aerobic interval-resistance training, three times per week; n=9), training- Chamomile (65min concurrent training, three times per week; 1.5 g Chamomile consumption, three times per day for eight weeks; n=10) and a control (no intervention; n=10) for 8 weeks. Body composition and glucose homeostasis variables were assessed at baseline and after the end of interventions. The results were analyzed using paired t-test and one-way analysis of variance.
Results: Training-chamomile intervention was associated with markedly decreased amount of body mass index and body fat percent (p<0.001). However, there was no significant difference in the concurrent training and control groups (p>0.05). In addition, there were no significant changes in fasting blood sugar, insulin or homeostatic model assessment for insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) in any groups (p>0.05). No significant difference in body composition and glucose homeostasis between the groups was detected at 8-weeks of intervention (p>0.05).
Conclusion: Considering the results, Chamomile consumption combined with aerobic-resistance training can probably be effective in improving body mass index and body fat percent in overweight and obese women.
