Then both groups performed progressive endurance training for 6 weeks Moreover individuals were consumed ginger supplements or placebo. Blood samples were taken at first and at the end of 6 weeks.Results: A significant increase in the lactate dehydrogenase (LDH) and creatine kinase concentrations were observed after 6 weeks of progressive endurance training. Moreover ginger supplementation also has significant effect on LDH levels.Conclusion: These results indicate that cellular damage induced by 6 weeks progressive endurance training. Can be significantly attenuated by ginger supplementation .However, a further study to determine the beneficial effects of ginger supplementation with different doses and during different periods is required.
