Brief Summary
the aim of this study is To assess the antioxidant potential by measuring TAC, SOD and MDA responses to aerobic exercise versus phoenix seed in 60 obese sedentary females with symptoms of systemic inflammation. • All subjects will follow the given instructions strictly during the study duration, regarding the assessment and the treatment procedure, all participants will be evaluated under the same environmental conditions

Conditions
Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (3)
TAC or total antioxidant capacity (blood test)
TAC: Determines the total antioxidant capacity of biological samples as a valuable approach to measuring health status under oxidative stress conditions,
test applied before and after 2 months of the intervention protocol
SOD (superoxide dismutase)
a blood test to determine the amount of SOD in blood and giving a good idea of the overall superoxide detoxifying capacity of a cell or tissue
Pre- intervention and after 8 weeks of treatment
MDA (malondialdehyde)
blood test that measures Malondialdehyde (MDA) level as a marker of oxidative stress and a contributor to all major diseases by determining the impact of oxidation in normal and cancer cells.
Pre- intervention and after 8 weeks of treatment
Study Arms (3)
Aerobic exercise
EXPERIMENTAL20 subjects performed a specialized program of aerobic exercise with frequency of 3-5 times /week
phoenix seed
EXPERIMENTAL20 subjects performed specialized program of phoenix seed consumption
Aerobic exercise and phoenix seed
EXPERIMENTAL20 subjects performed the same program of aerobic exercise with same frequency of 3-5 times /weeks combined with the same program of phoenix seed consumption
Interventions
the exercise protocol was applied following these characteristics * frequency: 3-5 times /week along the whole study period * intensity: 70% of the maximal heart rate (220- age x 70/100) * duration: 50 min (warming up exercise movements (stretching and flexibility) in standing position, active phase of walking on a computerized treadmill, cooling down exercise movements (stretching and flexibility) performed in the seated position. being supervised by two trainers and the researcher. The researcher controlled the heartbeat 2 times through carotid pulse and At the end in order to restore the body to its initial state. all the patients could drink water during their training.
consuming 2 grams of phoenix seed powder dissolved in about 100 ml water 3 times/day
