- Abstract
As the internal structure of mice is the most similar to that of human body, we used mice instead of humans for the experimental test and observed the anti-fatigue effect of soy isoflavone on the mice during swimming. Then, we further confirmed the remission effect of soy isoflavone on sports fatigue, which provided a solid theoretical basis for its application in sports. We selected the mice as the research objects and divided them into three groups. Through the swimming experiment, we observed the influences of soy isoflavone on hepatic glycogen content, muscle glycogen content, hepatic malondialdehyde and serum urea and the activity of serum lactic acid dehydrogenase in mice. Under the regulation effect of soy isoflavone, protein consumption of the mice reduced in the process of swimming, while fat increased, thus to provide energy for the body, relieve the sports fatigue and improve the exercise tolerance of the body. In addition, supplement of soy isoflavone could also improve the function of skeletal muscle mitochondria of the mice and reduce the generation of oxidative injury products; consequently, soy isoflavone was beneficial to easing the oxidative stress damage during sports. In conclusion, with a favorable regulating effect on the energy metabolism of mice during movement, soy isoflavone can effectively relieve physical fatigue.
