Brief Summary: Among the many changes associated with the impact of HIV and the long-term use of antiretroviral therapy, metabolics are important because they are important risk factors for the development of cardiovascular diseases. The objective of the present study is to evaluate the effect of the supplementation of curcumin, on the oxidation of resting energetic substrates in HIV / AIDS patients. The sample will be composed of adults living with HIV / AIDS on antiretroviral therapy for at least 6 months. Supplements will be made separately for 30 days and will be evaluated before and after the intervention the following parameters: body composition, energy metabolism, biochemical parameters and a structured anamnesis. Food consumption and the level of physical activity of the volunteers will be controlled.
Detailed Description: The study is characterized as a double-blind randomized clinical trial. Participants in the study will be adults living with HIV / AIDS who undergo regular clinical follow-up at some Specialized HIV / AIDS Care Service. The sample will consist of 20 volunteers, 10 in the experimental group (GE) and 10 in the control group (CG). Participants will be randomly assigned to one of the groups by lottery by a researcher not participating in the study. The researcher responsible, as well as the volunteers, will not be aware of which participants are in the GE or the GC. The study will be carried out in the Movement Laboratory of the Physical Education Department of the Federal University of Rio Grande do Norte.
