Description

Technical Field

[0001] The invention belongs to the technical field of food, and specifically relates to a composition for enhancing athletic ability and relieving sports fatigue and an application thereof. Background Art

[0002] Exercise is a high-energy process, so the body needs to provide a lot of energy in this process to ensure the needs of exercise. People who do high-intensity exercise or participate in fitness need a special diet to improve muscle strength or increase. At the same time, exercise fatigue will occur after exercise. Physical fatigue is manifested as slow movements, insensitivity, decreased coordination of movements, insomnia, irritability and restlessness, while psychological fatigue is manifested as inattention, memory impairment, difficulty in understanding and reasoning, slow and inaccurate mental activities, etc. If the fatigue after exercise is not relieved, the body will often be in a state of fatigue, which will cause substantial damage to the body.

[0003] At present, domestic sports supplement products for enhancing athletic performance and relieving muscle fatigue mainly focus on using creatine, L-arginine or β-alanine to enhance athletic performance; using caffeine to refresh the mind and relieve muscle fatigue, which generally only have 1-2 functions, such as the existing technology patents CN114391620A and CN101982121B. However, the efficiency of L-arginine conversion into NO in the body is low, and caffeine is prone to side effects, leading to excessive nerve excitement and insomnia. For example, Chinese invention patent CN101982121B discloses a functional sports drink and a preparation method thereof. The functional sports drink mainly includes: sweetener, creatine pyruvate, taurine, lysine, vitamin C, sodium chloride or sodium citrate, edible flavors, and purified water. The anti-fatigue functional ingredients are mainly creatine alanine and taurine. Creatine alanine can quickly replenish the energy required for muscle contraction, improve muscle explosiveness, enhance human endurance, and ensure the adaptability of muscles under high-intensity exercise. However, the dosage and time of alanine creatine supplementation must be reasonably controlled, otherwise it will increase the body's water weight, muscle cramps and metabolic burden, and it is not suitable for casual use as an ordinary beverage; second, it is necessary to supplement enough water to ensure the hydration of cells to prevent the side effects of muscle tightness, stiffness or cramps after using creatine alanine; third, taurine is mainly excreted from the kidneys, and the kidneys adjust their excretion according to the taurine content in the diet to maintain the relative stability of the taurine content in the body, and excessive intake will cause pressure on the kidneys. For this reason, people have turned their attention to traditional Chinese medicine. Chinese patent application CN101288478A discloses a nutrient that can enhance endurance and a preparation method thereof, which contains the following ingredients by weight: 1-2 parts of ginseng, 3-7 parts of rhodiola rosea, 15-25 parts of astragalus, 10-20 parts of poria, 10-20 parts of lotus seeds, 10-20 parts of licorice, 4-8 parts of jujube, 3-7 parts of angelica, 2-4 parts of Panax notoginseng, 4-8 parts of wolfberry, 3-7 parts of chrysanthemum, 5-15 parts of hawthorn, 3-7 parts of atractylodes, 5-15 parts of Acanthopanax, 5-15 parts of Cistanche, and 0.4-4.4 parts of KCL. However, the product mainly uses Chinese medicine extracts as the main raw materials, has poor flavor, and the decoction process is complicated and takes a long time, so the edible groups are unwilling to consume it for a long time.

[0004] Based on the above problems, it is of great practical significance to develop a composition that has good flavor, high safety, is easy to take, and can both enhance athletic performance and relieve muscle fatigue. Summary of the invention

[0062] Test Example 1: Impact on athletic ability

[0063] Experimental samples: The compositions of Example 1-3 and Comparative Example 1-7 were dissolved in distilled water to prepare suspensions at a concentration of 0.3 mg / mL.

[0064] Animals and grouping: 110 male Kunming mice, 8 weeks old, provided by Beijing Experimental Animal Center, 5 mice per cage, caged, sufficient feed during feeding, unlimited drinking water, room temperature of about 25 ° C, adaptive feeding after 7 days of experiment. All mice were randomly divided into 11 groups, namely blank control group, embodiment 1-3 group, comparative example 1-7 group, 10 mice in each group, embodiment 1-3 group, comparative example 1-7 group mice were gavaged at 10 o'clock every morning to give the composition suspension of embodiment 1-3 group and comparative example 1-7 group, the dosage was 1mL / 10gbw, and the blank control group was given the same dose of distilled water. After 3 hours of administration, swimming for 10 minutes on the first day, and then increasing by 10 minutes every day until it increased to 60 minutes, swimming training once every other day, 60 minutes each time, without weight throughout the whole process, and continuous training time for 4 weeks. On the second day after the end of swimming training, each group of mice was given a lead weight of 5% of their body weight to swim until exhaustion, and their exhaustion swimming time was recorded. The standard for judging the mice's swimming exhaustion was that the mice sank to the bottom of the water for 8 seconds and could not surface to breathe on their own. The exhaustion time of mice after ingestion of different samples is shown in Table 1.

[0065] Table 1: Exhaustion time of mice after ingestion of different samples

[0066]

[0067] Note: Compared with the blank control group, # Indicates P < 0.05, ## Indicates P < 0.01, ### P < 0.001; compared with the group in Example 1, the & Indicates P < 0.05, && Indicates P < 0.01.

[0068] According to the above data, compared with the blank control group, the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 can significantly prolong the exhaustion time of mice. Among them, the effect of prolonging the exhaustion time of mice in Example 1-3 is significantly better than that in Comparative Examples 1-7.

[0069] At the same time, the following indicators were measured for the above experimental mice:

[0070] 1) Evaluation of blood lactate content in mice

[0071] On the second day after the swimming training, 5 mice from each group were taken to measure the blood lactate content before exhaustion and 1 minute, 15 minutes and 60 minutes after exhaustion: the tail tip of the mouse was disinfected with an alcohol cotton ball, the tail was cut to collect blood, the first drop of blood was wiped off, the whole blood was absorbed with a test strip, and the blood lactate at different time points was measured using a Kyoto portable blood lactate meter. The results are shown in Tables 2 and Figure 1 .

[0072] Table 2: Blood lactate levels at different times after exhaustive exercise in different groups of mice

[0073]

[0074] Note: In the same column of data, compared with the blank control group, # Indicates P < 0.05, ## Indicates P < 0.01; compared with the group in Example 1, the & Indicates P < 0.05.

[0075] According to the experimental results in the chart, it can be seen that compared with the blank control group, the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 significantly reduced the blood lactate content of mice after exhaustive exercise. The blood lactate content of mice in Comparative Examples 1-7 was still significantly higher than the blood lactate content at rest 60 minutes after exhaustive exercise, while the blood lactate content of Examples 1-3 was almost close to the blood lactate content at rest 60 minutes after exhaustive exercise. Therefore, the effect of Example 1-3 on the anti-fatigue and post-fatigue physical recovery of the mouse body is significantly better than that of Comparative Examples 1-7.

[0076] 2) Evaluation of related enzyme activities and inflammatory factor levels in mouse serum

[0077] Five exhausted mice were selected from each group, and their eyeballs were immediately removed to collect blood, and they were killed by dislocating the neck. After the blood was allowed to stand at room temperature for 2 hours, it was centrifuged at 3000r / min for 10 minutes at 4°C. The upper serum was taken and placed in a centrifuge tube and stored in a -20°C refrigerator for later use. According to the reagent instructions, the Multiskan MK3 microplate reader was used to detect the superoxide dismutase (SOD) activity, malondialdehyde (MDA) content, interleukin 1β (IL-1β) and interleukin 6 (IL-6) content in mouse serum. The specific results are shown in the table below.

[0078] Table 3: Effects on related enzyme activities and inflammatory factor levels in mouse serum

[0079]

[0080] Note: In the same column of data, compared with the blank control group, # Indicates P < 0.05, ##Indicates P < 0.01; compared with the group in Example 1, the & Indicates P < 0.05, && Indicates P < 0.01.

[0081] According to the above data, compared with the blank control group, the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 significantly enhanced the activity of superoxide dismutase (SOD) and significantly reduced the content of interleukin 6 (IL-6), the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 2, 3, 5-7 significantly reduced the content of malondialdehyde, and the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 3, 6 and 7 significantly reduced the content of interleukin 1β (IL-1β). Among them, the effect of Example 1-3 is significantly better than that of Comparative Examples 1-7, indicating that it has antioxidant and anti-inflammatory effects.

[0082] Test Example 2: Muscle Maximum Active Tension Test

[0083] The compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 were pre-packaged into samples of 10 g / bag.

[0084] 110 boys (average age 22.3±0.6 years old) who exercise regularly and have no significant difference in the measured value of MVC were screened and divided into 11 groups, namely, Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 1-7 and a blank control group, wherein each volunteer in Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 groups took 1 bag of the experimental sample of the corresponding group, delivered with warm water, and the blank control group only took the same amount of warm water. The maximum active tensile force test (MVC) of muscles was used to compare the maximum muscle force of the subjects in Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 1-7 and the blank control group (only taking the same amount of warm water) after taking the corresponding samples. MVC is a commonly used muscle strength test method, which evaluates the muscle strength level by measuring the force generated by the muscle in the state of maximum active contraction. Specific operation method: let the subject perform maximum active contraction for 3-5 seconds, and then use a handheld dynamic force balancer to measure the maximum force value generated. The results are shown in the table below.

[0085] Table 4: Maximum muscle force (MVC) after ingestion of different samples

[0086]

[0087] Note: Peer data, the results after the experiment are compared with the results before the experiment. △ indicates P < 0.05, △△ Indicates P<0.01. Data in the same column, compared with the blank control group, # Indicates P < 0.05, ## Indicates P < 0.01; compared with the group in Example 1, the & Indicates P < 0.05.

[0088] According to the above data, compared with the blank control group, the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 can significantly enhance the maximum muscle strength of the subjects, wherein the enhancement effect of Examples 1-3 on the maximum muscle strength is significantly better than that of Comparative Examples 1-7.

[0089] Test Example 3

[0090] The compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 were pre-packaged into samples of 10 g / bag.

[0091] 110 people (55 men and 55 women) who exercise regularly and have no significant difference in the time taken for 3000-meter timed running and the muscle fatigue recovery time after running were selected, with an average age of 24.4±1.5, and divided into 11 groups (5 men and 5 women in each group), respectively, Examples 1-3, Comparative Examples 1-7 and a blank control group, wherein each volunteer in the Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 groups took 1 bag of the experimental sample of the corresponding group before exercise, and took it with warm water, while the blank control group only took the same amount of warm water. After taking it for half an hour, a 3000-meter timed running was performed, and the required time and the muscle fatigue recovery time after exercise were recorded. The results are shown in the following table.

[0092] Table 5: Exercise time and muscle fatigue recovery time after taking different samples

[0093]

[0094] Note: Peer data, the results after the experiment are compared with the results before the experiment. △ indicates P < 0.05, △△ Indicates P<0.01. Data in the same column, compared with the blank control group, # Indicates P < 0.05, ## Indicates P < 0.01; compared with the group in Example 1, the & Indicates P < 0.05.

[0095] According to the results in the table, it can be seen that compared with the blank control group, the compositions of Examples 1-3 and Comparative Examples 1-7 can significantly improve exercise performance, reduce exercise time, and reduce muscle fatigue recovery time. Among them, the effects of Examples 1-3 on improving exercise performance and relieving muscle fatigue are significantly better than those of Comparative Examples 1-7.
