Effect of Clenbuterol using as weight loose on liver enzymes and lipids profile
Keywords:
Clenbuterol, lipase, lipoprotein, weight looseAbstract
Objective: The current study is considered at the effect of 3 month using Clenbuterol as weight loose in 22 healthy men comparing them with 30 healthy men who do not take Clenbuterol.
Methods: samples of blood were taken from (52) healthy subjects who were divided into three groups: (12 subjects) who are not training and not taking any medication (C) ,they are supposed to be the control group ; (18 subjects) training not taking Clenbuterol (T No CLEN) group and (22 subjects) training and taking Clenbuterol (T+CLEN )group. AST, ALT, ALP, Lipase enzyme, total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), high density lipoprotein (HDL) and low density lipoprotein (LDL) were measured .
Results: it is found that there is elevated in AST,ALT and lipase enzymes in(T+CLEN) and (T No CLEN) groups, but the ALP enzyme increased in (T+CLEN) group only. TG level was increased more in (T+CLEN) group. On the other hand ,HDL raised but LDL lowered its level in (T No CLEN) group. For TC and LDL levels, it is found that they were decreased in (T No CLEN) group and were not that much decreased in (T+CLEN) group when compared with (T No CLEN) group.
Conclusion: it is concluded that Clenbuterol using as weight loose do not affect in a good way on body because it raised the level of liver enzyme which means there was over loading on it. In addition to that, it increased the TG in blood stream which is harmful to human and health in general.
