Protocol summary

Study aim
Determining the effect of eight weeks of combined exercises and green tea consumption on the level of sirtuin 1 and liver enzymes in patients with non-alcoholic fatty liver disease.
Design
Clinical trial with control group, with parallel groups, randomized, on 60 patients. Randomization by the method of equal blocks (15 blocks of 4) in which a number of intervention people and a number of comparison people are included in each block.
Settings and conduct
By referring to Hamedan Ba'ath Hospital, eligible people were identified and placed in the intervention groups using equal blocks randomization (15 blocks of 4). Then, people will go to the sports club for training intervention and perform exercises and supplements for 8 weeks. And before and 24 hours after exercise interventions, blood samples are taken from people to be measured in the laboratory.
Participants/Inclusion and exclusion criteria
Entry conditions: suffering from non-alcoholic fatty liver disease Conditions of non-entry: inability to practice
Intervention groups
Exercises and supplements group: in the exercises group, the samples are subjected to combined exercises, and the supplement group also consumes green tea, and finally, the exercise group along with consumption of green tea, which implements both at the same time.

Intervention groups

1

Description
Intervention group: Sports intervention includes 8 weeks of combined exercises (selected aerobic and resistance exercises). According to the instructions of the American College of Sports Medicine (ACSM), the participants start training three times a week for fifty minutes, and the intensity and duration of the training is increased during 8 weeks. All exercises are performed under the supervision of a sports physiology specialist and in the health sports clinic. For aerobic exercise, participants choose to exercise on a treadmill or bicycle ergometer. Aerobic training sessions start from 20 minutes and with an intensity of 60% of the maximum heart rate in the first and second week and increase to 30 minutes and up to 70% of the maximum heart rate in the 8th week. During the training, the heart rate is monitored by a Polar T31 oy pacemaker. Resistance training begins with one set of 15 repetitions for each movement in the first two weeks, and finally the intensity of the training is increased to two or three sets of 10-120 repetitions. It increases in week 8. All resistance exercises are performed by means of gym machines and include chest press, leg press, cable underarm, cable front arm and cable back arm. 500 mg capsules of green tea were prescribed twice a day for eight weeks. Therefore, in this recipe, we use Kam Green green tea tablets, which contain 450 mg of green tea, twice a day for eight weeks. The third group implements both interventions at the same time.
