Background and Objectives: Mental health promotion is a useful strategy to achieve developmental indicators. The objective of this study was to investigate effects of curcumin consumption and aerobic training on mental health and body mass index of overweight middle-aged women.
 Materials & Methods: In this quasi-experimental study, 40 women in the age group of 30–45 years with body mass index of 24.9–29.9 were divided into four major groups of ten people: including "aerobic training and placebo", "supplement", "aerobic training and supplement" and "placebo". Data were collected using demographic questionnaires, anthropometric indices and general health questionnaires. Aerobic training was carried out three times per week for two months. "Supplement" and "aerobic and supplement" groups received two 250-mg curcumin capsules daily. In the first stage, height and weight were measured and the general health questionnaires were filled. After two months, participants’ weight was measured and the general health questionnaires were completed. Independent t-test, paired t-test, univariate analysis of covariance and Bonferroni post-hoc test were used to analyze data. The level of significance was p < 0.05.
Results: Body mass index significantly decreased in “supplement” (p = 0.015) and “supplement and exercise” (p = 0.028) groups. Decreases in overall mental health scores were significant in “supplement” group only (p = 0.046). All subscales of mental health included significant decreases in all groups. No significant relationships were seen between the exercise and curcumin with the overall mental health scores (p < 0.05). The four groups were significantly different in physical symptoms and depression.
Conclusion: Although curcumin use and aerobic training alone can improve BMI and mental health, curcumin use with aerobic training does not appear to include interactive effects. Therefore, further comprehensive studies with changes in exercise programs and duration of interventions and use of other assessment methods of mental health are recommended.
