Resumo: |
The nut consumption is associated with reduced risk for cardiovascular disease. Almond baru (Dipteryx alata Vog.) Awakens scientific interest for its nutritional composition. The aim of this randomized controlled clinical trial was to evaluate the effect of consumption of almond baru associated normocaloric prescription on body composition, lipid profile and antioxidant enzymes activity in overweight women. The study included 46 overweight women who were prescribed normocaloric diet and were randomized into a placebo group (PG, n = 22, 800 mg maltodextrin) and intervention group (IG, n = 24, 20 g almonds baru ). Adiposity, blood pressure, serum lipids, biochemical parameters and enzyme activity of catalase, glutathione peroxidase (GPx) and superoxide dismutase (SOD) measurements were determined at baseline and at study completion. Statistical analysis was performed using Stata software for Windows (version 12.0). Comparisons of means and pre-and post-intervention differences between groups were analyzed by Student's t test. The pre-and post-intervention differences within groups were analyzed by t test for paired samples were significant p <0.05. Body mass decreased in GP and GI, however the reduction in adiposity was observed only in GI. The reduction in waist circumference was 1.7 times higher in GI, compared to GP (p = 0.01). The lipid composition, just got GI reduction (p <0.05) in serum total cholesterol (-12.8 mg / dL), LDL cholesterol (-10.47 mg / dL) and triglycerides (-15.00 mg / dL), and increasing concentrations of HDL (+3.63 mg / dl, p <0.01). The activity of GPx and SOD increased in GI (p <0.05), with differences between groups for GPx (+0.08 versus -0.07 U / mg, p <0.001, respectively). Therefore, consumption of 20 g almonds baru associated with prescription normocaloric reduced adiposity, improved lipid profile and increased the activity of antioxidant enzymes in overweight women. |
