A comparative Study Of Blood Sugar Levels And Some Functional Indicators Between Students Who Skip Breakfast And Students Who Do Not. Exercises For a Fitness Conference

Abstract

Objectives. To identify the correlation between some physiological variables of blood sugar, systolic blood pressure, diastolic blood pressure, and respiratory rate among female students who abstain from breakfast and those who do not abstain from breakfast.

.

Materials and Methods. The researcher defined his research population as female students in the College of Physical Education and Sports Sciences, Dhi Qar University, first year, Section A, consisting of 35 students, The research sample included (20) students, divided into 10 students who abstained from breakfast and 10 who did not abstain from breakfast, representing a percentage of 57%. , Tools Used ( Blood pressure measuring device, Blood glucose measuring device, Cotton , Sterile , Gloves, Needles for the glucose meter, Glucose meter strips ) , Statistical methods ( The researcher used the SPSS statistical package, version 2023, and the data were processed using the t-test for independent samples, the arithmetic mean, the standard deviation, and the skewness coefficient.)

Results. This study showed that blood glucose levels decrease before breakfast and are within normal levels during fasting, but that glucose levels increase after breakfast.

The potential for using blood glucose levels as a measure to improve students' concentration levels during practical lectures. 

Conclusions. The researcher in this study recommends conducting future studies on the same topic, with a broader range of cases, as well as studying students' glucose levels at different levels, which would help increase concentration levels and improve performance.

-The importance of controlling blood glucose levels is to maintain regular physical and nervous activity. Reducing these levels reduces stress and increases understanding and the ability to perform practical and scientific lectures
