ABSTRACT

Physical exercise is important in preventing and adjunctive therapy certain diseases. However. over physical exercise for beginners may cause oxidative stress and muscle injury leads to generate chemoattractants vvhic enables to attract neutrophil and monocyte towards the injury and stimulates leucocytes activation. The use of antioxidant-rich fruits to mitigate exercise induced oxidative stress has been applied. This study was conducted to evaluate the effect of guava juice (Psidium guajava L) consumption during aerobic exercise on leucocytes, neutrophils and superoxydes dismutase (SOD) level of beginners. Sixteen students of National Land College (Sekolah Tinggi Pertanahan Nasional/STPN), Yogyakarta who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were involved in this study.

Subjects were divided into two groups i.e. a roup given mineral water as control and another group given 240 ml guava juice 0.67 gimL daily for 27 days as treatment group. Both groups then underwent aerobic exercise tor 30 minutes every day for 27 days. Blood samples were taken before and after exercise on day 1, 7 and 14 for leucocyte and nutrophil count as well as SOD analysis. The leucocyte count and SOD level before and after exercise in both Guava juice and Mineral water groups were not significantly different lp > 0.05I. However, the percentage of neutrophil on day 1 and 7 were significantly higher than that in Mineral water group (p
