Combined effects of a circuit training programme and honey supplementation on immune functions in young males
INTRODUCTION: Besides physical activity, immune level can be enhanced and maintained through adequate nutritional intake. To date, little is lmown about combination effects of exercise and honey supplementation on immune functions in young males. PURPOSE: This study was carried out to investigate...

INTRODUCTION: Besides physical activity, immune level can be enhanced and
maintained through adequate nutritional intake. To date, little is lmown about combination
effects of exercise and honey supplementation on immune functions in young males.
PURPOSE: This study was carried out to investigate the effects of a combined circuit
training programmne and honey supplementation on immune functions in young males.
METHODS : Forty young male subjects were assigned into four groups, with ten subjects
per group (n=lO): sedentary without honey supplementation control (C), sedentary with
honey supplementation (H), circuit training programme without honey supplementation (Ex),
circuit training programme with honey supplementation (HEx) groups. Circuit training
programme was performed by the subjects three times per week for six weeks. Tualang
Honey was consumed by the subjects at a dosage of20 g diluted in 300 ml of plain water per
day, seven days per week for six weeks in (H) and (HEx) groups. Subjects in (HEx)

of experimental period, subjects' anthropometry parameters were measured. Blood samples
were taken before and after experimental period in order to measure white blood cells,
