RESUMO
Objective To explore the effects of nutritional intervention on body composition,blood biochemical parameters and blood pressure of overweight adults with metabolic syndrome.Methods Forty overweight adults with metabolic syndrome (body mass index (BMI) ＞ 28.0 kg/m2,waist circunference ≥85 cm(for male)or ≥80 cm(for female))participated in this investigation.Changes of serum lipid profiles,blood glucose,blood pressure and other indicators were compaired before and after 2-months'intervention.SPSS 18.0 Software was used for data analysis.Results After two rnonths' nutritional intervention,body weight,body fat,BMI,visceral fat area and waist hip ratio were significantly improved(t =17.02,11.07,5.11,10.35,9.58 ; P ＜ 0.05).The glutamic-pyruvic transaminase,glutamic-oxalacetic transaminease,cholesterol,triacylglycerol,fasting blood-glucose,systolic blood pressure and diastolic blood pressure were also significantly improved after nutrition intervention(t =2.87,2.91,3.33,2.24,2.56,5.74,6.99 ;P ＜ 0.05).Conclusion Nutrition intervention may contribute to improved levels of blood pressure,blood glucose and serum lipid profiles of obesity individuals through body weight and body fat control and lead to reduced insulin resistance caused by obesity.
