Introduction: Osteocalcin and osteopontin are related to diabetes and osteoporosis. The aim was to determine the effect of eight weeks of endurance-resistance training and taurine supplementation on osteocalcin and osteopontin in diabetic male Wistar rats.Materials and Methods: In this experimental study,40adult male Wistar rats weighing 250-300grams and 6weeks old were randomly divided into 3 diabetic groups (each group, 10Rat); exercise, supplement and a control and a non-diabetic groups were included as a healthy control group. To make diabetic, 55mg/kg of body weight of streptozocin was injected. Combined exercises were performed for eight weeks and 5times a week. Taurine supplementation was taken as a 1% solution in water daily. One-way ANOVA and Bonferroni's post hoc were used to compare the inter-group and intra-group changes of the variables.Results: Osteocalcin increased significantly in the diabetic exercise group compared to the diabetic control (P=0.018) and decreased significantly in the diabetic control compared to the healthy (P=0.0001). Osteopontin increased significantly in the diabetic control group compared to the healthy control (P=0.003); While, there was no significant difference in other groups (P=1.000). Body weight and BMI increased significantly in the exercise-diabetic group compared to the diabetic-supplement (P=0.0001). There was a significant decrease in food consumption in the diabetic exercise group compared to the diabetic supplement group (P=0.030).Conclusion: Eight weeks of endurance-resistance training and taurine supplementation led to an increase in osteocalcin and no change in osteopontin.

Introduction:Menopause is natural phenomenon and it is a stage of a woman's life in which, the menstruation period ends as a result of the reduction of the ovaries activity and the lack of estrogen. Since blood pressure and insulin resistance is a major problem in older women, The purpose of this study would be studying the The effect of combined training with and without consuming the flaxseed on the Insulin resistance and blood pressure of postmenopausal womenmethods:this quasi-experimental study,27postmenopausal women with the age group of 50 to 60 years old and the BMI equal to 25 to30kg/m2, were selected using the available sampling method. Then they were randomly divided into two groups called the combined training(12people)and the combined training plus flaxseed(15people).The aerobic exercise was preformed with the intensity of 60to80 percent of the maximal heart rate and the resistance exercise with the intensity of60to80 percent of a maximal repetition .complementary was given by using25 gr of the milled flaxseed.The blood samples were collected for measuring insulin resistance and analyzed using SPSS software and Independent and independent t test, respectively, to compare intra-group and inter-group differences at a significant level of P
