Study Details
Study Description
Brief Summary
In the present study, the authors aimed to investigate the effects of hardaliye (grape juice) consumption on oxidative stress parameters, lipid profile and blood pressure in young football players.

Experimental: Hardaliye Group Hardaliye Group consumed 250 ml/day of hardaliye (grape juice) for 28 days. |
Other: Grape juice
Hardaliye (grape juice) is a fermented, traditional non-alcoholic beverage made from fresh grapes. It is mainly produced by the fermentation of grapes, sour cherry leaves and mustard seeds. Hardaliye was purchased from traditional producers in Turkey. Hardaliye Group consumed 250 ml/day of hardaliye (grape juice) for 28 days.

Placebo Comparator: Placebo Group Placebo Group consumed 250 ml/day of placebo drink for 28 days. |
Other: Placebo drink
Placebo drink has carbohydrate, energy and sensory properties similar to hardaliye. Placebo Group consumed 250 ml/day of placebo drink

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Change in total antioxidant capacity [28 days]
Measurement of serum level of total antioxidant capacity (μmol Trolox eq/L).
- Change in total oxidation status [28 days]
Measurement of serum level of total oxidation status (μmol H2O2 eq/L).
- Change in oxidative stress index [28 days]
(Serum level of total oxidation status/serum level of total antioxidant capacity) × 100
- Change in lipid parameters [28 days]
Measurement of serum levels total cholesterol (mg/dl), HDL-cholesterol (mg/dl), LDL-cholesterol (mg/dl) and triglycerides (mg/dl).
- Change in blood pressure [28 days]
Measurement of systolic (mm Hg) and diastolic blood pressure (mm Hg)
Secondary Outcome Measures
- Change in perceived exercise-induced pain [28 days]
Perceived exercise-induced pain was determined using the 100-mm Visual Analog Scale. 100-mm Visual Analog Scale scores range from 0 (no pain) to 100 (most severe pain). A higher score indicates a higher perceived pain level.
