These conditions certainly affect the nutritional status and also the cardiorespiratory fitness of a person. InIndonesia, at least 15 out of 1000 people, or around 2,784,064 individuals suffer from heart disease. In Central JavaProvince, 0.61% of them are children aged 5-14 years old (Riskesdas, 2018). The VO2 Max value is a method formeasuring cardio respiration that can be used to determine which children are at risk of suffering from cardiovasculardisease. The VO2 Max value is influenced by several factors, including nutritional status and exercise habits. Thisstudy aimed to find out the correlation between nutritional status and exercise habits and the value of maximum oxygenvolume (VO2 Max) in male students at SMP Negeri in Temanggung during the Covid-19 pandemic. This was adescriptive-analytic study with across-sectional design. The sampling was done using the purposive sampling methodon 57 samples at SMP Negeri 1 Kaloran. It used Chi-square test for nutritional status variable with p value = 0.000 andexercise habits with p value = 0.001. The logistic regression test was used for each p-value with the nutritional statusOR value of 6.640 and the exercise habit OR value of 4.807 and with R Square value of 0.38 or 38%.

Five databases reported a decrease in IL-6 levels and three journals stated that there was an increase in IL-6 levels in the type-2 diabetes group after being given propolis. One journal reported no significant difference. Variations in propolis administration and time in IL-6 measurements affected the tendency to decrease IL-6 levels in type 2 diabetes patients. The active components in propolis were influenced by differences in plant resources, collection season, bee species, and solvents used in the extraction. IL-6 levels in the type-2 diabetes group tended to decrease after propolis administration compared to the type-2 diabetes group without propolis administration. IL-6 levels in the type-2 diabetes group increased after propolis administration because IL-6 helps improve chronic inflammation associated with type-2 diabetes.","PeriodicalId":12963,"journal":{"name":"Herb-Medicine Journal","volume":"71 1","pages":""},"PeriodicalIF":0.0,"publicationDate":"2021-08-16","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"77294408","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":0,"RegionCategory":"","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Agents that help maintain T cell counts such as Curcumin appear to have played an important role during the Covid-19 pandemic. Curcumin is known to provide a balance between T cell effectiveness and T cell autoaggressiveness, as well as restoring memory T cell function as observed in tumor-induced mice. The mixture of 4 herbal extracts of empon-empon which is commonly used as herbal medicine, namely temulawak, ginger, lemongrass, and turmeric, is thought to have the same effect as curcumin.
