Résumé

Pequi is a typical fruit of the Brazilian Cerrado. Its pulp contains antioxidants and fatty acids. Intake of these substances is related to lowering blood pressure. However, literature is scarce regarding the effect of pequi oil supplementation on blood pressure. Aim: To analyze the effect of pequi oil supplementation on systolic and diastolic blood pressure after a strength training session. Methods: Twelve men (21.1 ± 2.6 years, 77.0 ± 10.5kg) underwent pequi oil supplementation for 14 days. Before and after this period, they performed a bench press exercise session. Blood pressure was measured at rest, immediately after exercise, at 10, 20, 30 and 40 min of recovery. Results: Both before (+10.6mmHg, P=0.03) and after supplementation (+13.1mmHg, P=0.02), systolic blood pressure increased immediately after exercise. However, there was no significant reduction in systolic and diastolic blood pressure in relation to resting values at any time point, neither before nor after supplementation. Conclusion: Supplementation with pequi oil for 14 days is insufficient to induce blood pressure reduction after a strength exercise session in normotensive men.
