Abstract

Analyze blood biochemistry sports practitioners goers exercise gym, doing a comparative analysis of the results among athletes using and not using food supplementation. They evaluated 19 sportsmen who practice exercise between 18 and 45 years, residents in the city of São Paulo-SP, 12 consumers (C) and 7 non-consumers (NC) supplementary feeding (SA). The collection of peripheral blood was performed on fasting 8h, stored in collection tube containing EDTA and GEL, transported at a temperature between 2 and 8 ° C, and analyzed the biochemical industry Lab Clinical Analysis of UNIFMU. The samples were subjected to the tests Total cholesterol, HDL, LDL, VLDL, uric acid, urea, creatinine, total protein, albumin, glucose and triglycerides. Denoted change in the lipid profile of the groups studied. Thus, the consumer SA patients showed lower levels of HDL-c (27 mg / dl) VLDL (16 mg / dl) and elevated LDL-c (113 mg / dl). In the treatment of non-consumers of SA observed levels were within the reference values HDL-C (46 mg / dl) VLDL (14.5 mg / dl) and elevated LDL-C (97 mg / dl). It can be observed that there are significant variations in the biochemical profile between the groups of patients using and not using food supplementation, which denotes the conscious or unconscious use of self-supplementation can be a risk factor to the health of these athletes.
