Miel de abeja, función cognitiva, atleta femenina, ácido láctico, VO2MaxResumen
Introducción: Esto ha impulsado a científicos y entrenadores deportivos a realizar estudios destinados a encontrar formas de ayudar a los atletas a alcanzar el máximo rendimiento. Objetivo: Este estudio se llevó a cabo para determinar los efectos de la suplementación con miel de abeja durante la Fase de Preparación Especial (SPS) en la función cognitiva, los niveles de ácido láctico y el VO2Max en atletas femeninas del Centro de Educación y Formación de Estudiantes de la Provincia de Riau (PPLP).
Metodología: Se utilizó un método experimental y las muestras fueron 56 atletas femeninas del PPLP de la provincia de Riau. Se evaluó el VO2Max mediante la prueba del pitido, se determinaron los niveles de ácido láctico con el sistema Edge de monitorización del lactato en sangre y las participantes realizaron cuatro tareas de función cognitiva, a saber, la prueba de tiempo de reacción de elección (CRT), la prueba de cuadrícula de concentración (CGT), la prueba de visualización de rotaciones (VR) y la prueba de sustitución de símbolos numéricos (DSST). Los datos obtenidos se analizaron mediante la prueba ANOVA (p<0,05).
Resultados: Los resultados mostraron que se produjeron mejoras significativas en la función cognitiva, una reducción de los niveles de ácido láctico y un aumento del VO2Max en los atletas que recibieron suplementos de miel de abeja. Se observaron diferencias significativas en las mediciones pretest, midtest y posttest de la función cognitiva, los niveles de ácido láctico y el VO2Max entre los grupos de atletas (p<0,05).
Discusión: Los resultados mostraron que tanto la suplementación con miel de abeja como el ejercicio SPS mejoraron la función cognitiva, redujeron los niveles de ácido láctico y mejoraron el VO2Max en atletas femeninas.
Conclusiones: Según los resultados, la suplementación con miel de abeja fue eficaz durante el SPS para mejorar la función cognitiva, reducir los niveles de ácido láctico y mejorar el VO2Max en atletas femeninas.
