Randomization description
In this research, subjects are selected Simple randomization by random allocation rule. After determining the sample size, they will be equally divided into five groups (1- Control, 2- Overweight, 3- Overweight + Exercise, 4- Overweight + Spirulina and 5- Overweight + Exercise + Spirulina). Using the lottery method, the names of the subjects are written on separate papers and placed in a container, then the names of the subjects are randomly taken out and placed in the intervention groups or placebo, respectively.
Blinding (investigator's opinion)
Single blinded
Blinding description
The Overweight + Spirulina and Overweight + Exercise + Spirulina patients receive Spirulina (1000 mg/day), two capsules orally of 500 mg twice daily before breakfast and dinner for 8 weeks. Control, Overweight and Overweight + Exercise groups receive placebo in the same pharmacological presentation. Starch is used as placebo.
