Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Serum estrogen levels. Timepoint: Estrogen hormone will be measured at the beginning of the study (before the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: ELISA KIT.;Serum progesterone levels. Timepoint: Progesterone hormone will be measured at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: ELISA KIT.;Serum levels of reactive oxygen species (ROS). Timepoint: The measurement of ROS will be at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: Eliza kit (spectroscopy).;Serum level of total antioxidant capacity (TAC). Timepoint: The measurement of TAC will be at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: Eliza kit (spectroscopy).;Serum level of glutathione peroxidase (GPx). Timepoint: GPx will be measured at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: Eliza kit (spectroscopy).;Malondialdehyde (MDA) serum level. Timepoint: The measurement of MDA will be at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: Eliza kit (spectroscopy).;MicroRNA gene expression (miR-146a). Timepoint: The measurement of miR-146a will be at the beginning of the study (before the start of the intervention) and 60 days (two months) after the start of the supplement and exercise program. Method of measurement: Real time PCR.;MicroRNA gene expression (miR-223). Timepoint: The measurement of miR-223 will be at the beginning
