| Abstract | Background: Type 2 diabetes is a metabolic disease with many consequences. Objectives: This study aimed to evaluate the separate and combined effects of resistance training and cucumber (Cucumis sativus) juice consumption on diabetic indicators and lipid profiles in women with type 2 diabetes. Methods: Women with type 2 diabetes (n = 40) were assessed in a randomized, double-blind study and categorized into four groups: (training + placebo), (training + supplement), supplement, and control. Blood sampling was performed 48 hours before and after the protocol, and blood indicators were evaluated to compare their changes among groups. One-way ANOVA statistical tests and Tukey’s post hoc test were used to compare groups. Results: The results indicated that separate resistance training significantly decreased fasting blood sugar (FBS), glycated hemoglobin (HbA1c), triglyceride (TG), total cholesterol (TC), and low-density lipoprotein (LDL), while high-density lipoprotein (HDL) significantly increased. Cucumber juice consumption significantly reduced FBS, HbA1c, TG, TC, and LDL, while HDL significantly increased (P < 0.05). Combined resistance training and consuming cucumber juice caused a more significant decrease in (FBS, HbA1c, TG, TC, and LDL), and HDL increased significantly (P < 0.05). Intergroup changes in (FBS, TG, TC, LDL) was significant (P < 0.05). Intergroup changes in (HbA1c and HDL) were significant (P < 0.05). However, differences in (HbA1c and HDL) between training and supplement groups were not significant (P ≥ 0.05). Conclusions: Separate and combined effects of resistance training and cucumber juice consumption improved diabetic indicators and lipid profile in women with type 2 diabetes. | en |
