Autonomic and Cardiovascular Recovery After the Acute Use of Resveratrol in Overweight and Obesity Individuals

Food is a strong ally in improving the metabolic state in overweight, obesity and prevention of associated diseases, working on weight loss and ingestion of anti-inflammatory, anti-oxidant and cardioprotective substances, among these substances, we highlight the polyphenols. Resveratrol or 3,5,4-trihydroxystilbene is a polyphenol studied since 1976, a phytoalexin synthesized in the skin of the grape, which is increased when exposed to stresses such as ultraviolet radiation, enhancing the antioxidant and cardioprotective characteristics.This study aims to evaluate the cardiovascular autonomic recovery and the metabolic profile with the acute effect of resveratrol extract after submaximal aerobic exercises in individuals with overweight and grade I obesity.Heart rate variation (HRV) is considered the most trivial method for analyzing the behavior of autonomic efferents (parasympathetic and sympathetic) on the heart. HRV recovery after exercise has been widely used as a method of analyzing ANS adaptation (vagal recovery) under various conditions.Healthy, physically active individuals with good health characteristics have a rapid recovery of HRV after exercise, indicating good adaptability and a lower risk for cardiovascular diseases. Meanwhile, changes HRV patterns provide a sensitive and early indicator of health impairments. The monitoring of these data is necessary, as they act as markers of emerging risk for the development of complications associated with CNCDs and risks of future injuries. In this context, the present project will make it possible to verify the effect of the acute use of resveratrol on the metabolic profile and on the autonomic and cardiovascular recovery of individuals with overweight and obesity grade I.
