Venous blood samples were obtained between 5:00 and 6:00 p.m., after exercising for 2 hours, at the baseline and after intervention. Participants received 2 g EPA and/or 400 IU vitamin E and/or placebo depending on their groups. For 6 weeks, eight subjects received an EPA supplement with vitamin E (group 1), nine subjects received an EPA supplement with vitamin E placebo (group 2), nine subjects received an EPA supplement placebo and vitamin E (group 3), and eight subjects received an EPA supplement placebo and vitamin E placebo (group 4).</p> <p><strong>results:</strong> Significant decreases were documented in the serum levels of total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides ( TG), LDL-C and CRP in group1 (p<0.01), in TC, TG, LDL-C, CRP, and BP in group 2 (p<0.01), and significant increase in total antioxidant capacity in group 3 (P<0.05). No significant difference was found in LDL between groups 1 and 4 (P<0.05), and in total antioxidant capacity between groups 2 and 3 (p<0.001) and groups 3 and 4 (p<0.001), and in CRP level between groups 2 and 3 (P<0.05).
