Kim, Ahn, Ju, Lee, Kim, and Jung: Effects of Aerobic Exercise Training and Natural Fermented Vinegar on Body Composition and Cardiopulmonary Function in Middle Aged Women

Abstract

Purpose

The aim of this study was to examine the effects of longterm endurance exercise and natural fermented vinegar on body composition and cardiopulmonary function of 50-aged postmenopausal women.

Methods

Subjects were divided into four groups (sedentary group, aerobic exercise group, natural fermented vinegar group, and aerobic exercise plus natural fermented vinegar group) to perform natural fermented vinegar intake or aerobic exercise for 8 weeks. Body weight, body composition, cardiopulmonary function test, and blood concentration of glucose, lipid profiles, aspartate aminotransferase, and alanine aminotransferase were measured.

Results

The results showed that natural fermented vinegar or aerobic exercise training for 8 weeks no significantly improved body weight control and body composition. However, natural fermented vinegar plus aerobic exercise training for 8 weeks significantly improved cardiopulmonary function.

Conclusion

These results suggest that natural fermented vinegar plus aerobic exercise training has a significant effect on anti-fatigue.
