Abstract:
Objective To establish the resist-fatigue animal test through using Maca, in order to provide reference for the relevant departments to exploit new sports nutrition . Methods Thirty male KM mice were randomly divided into Quiet control group (A),Exhaustive group (B,high altitude),Maca exhaustive group (C), there were 10 mice in each group. Drinking water containing Maca (Maca =500 mg/L) was supplied in group C. Additional exhaustive group (D,low altitude) was set.Thirty days later, all mice were killed after one exhaustive test, then we tested the exhaustive time, the level of T-SOD and liver glycogen. Results The exhaustive time of group C was significantly longer than group B (P<0.05), the T-SOD level of group C was significantly higher than group A and group B (P<0.05), and the liver glycogen content of group C was significantly higher than group B (P<0.05) . Conclusion Maca can raise T-SOD and liver glycogen level of the mice after exhaustive swimming, and has function of resist-fatigue.
