Brief Summary: The aim of this study was to verify the effect of a combined supplementation \[n-3 PUFA (known to induce anti-inflammatory effects) plus vitamin E (known for its antioxidant properties)\] on lipidic, glycemic, redox status and inflammatory parameters in type 2 diabetic patients. In addition, considering that exercise, at high intensities, can induce a transient inflammatory state and increase oxidative stress (OS) markers, the investigators tested if our nutritional intervention could attenuate this response within this population (thus, using high intensity exercise as inductor of acute inflammatory/OS state).
Detailed Description: Herein the investigators tested the effect of eight weeks of omega-3 polyunsaturated fatty acid (n-3 PUFA) and vitamin E supplementation before and after an acute high intensity exercise bout on lipid profile, glycemic, redox and inflammatory parameters in type 2 diabetic (T2DM) patients. Thirty T2DM patients, without chronic complications, took part in this study. Blood and urine samples were collected after 12 h-fasting state for baseline biochemical analysis. Thereafter, subjects performed an incremental workload VO2max test on a cycle ergometer to determine the load of the high intensity submaximal exercise. On the following week, blood samples were collected before and immediately after the exercise test for measurements of oxidative stress (OS) and high-sensitivity C-reactive protein (hs-CRP). Afterwards, participants were randomly allocated into two groups: placebo (gelatin) and n-3 PUFA (capsules containing 180 mg of eicosapentaenoic acid, 120 mg of docosahexaenoic acid and 2 mg of vitamin E). Three capsules were ingested daily for eight weeks. Then, the examination protocol and the exercise test were repeated and the samples collected.
