ABSTRACT
Objective To investigate the effects of weight-loss intervention on metabolic indicators in over-weight or obesity adults.MethodsA total of 116 over-weight or obese adults entered into this study from March 2008 to December 2009.The participants were divided into three groups by age.Each group received 6 months'weight-loss intervention.Body mass index(BMI),body fat rate,blood pressure,fasting blood glucose(FBG),oral glucose tolerance test(OGTY)2 h blood glucose,serum triglyceride(TG),total cholesterol(TC),high-density lipoprotein cholesterol(HDL-C),and low-density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL-C)were measured before and after the intervention.The data were analyzed using t test.Results After the intervention,BMI,FBG,TG,and LDL-C were significantly decreased while HDL Was significantly increased in each group(P<0.05).Body fat rate,systolic blood pressure,diastolic blood pressure and OGTT 2 h blood glucose were significantly reduced in the young and middle-aged groups(P<0.05),however,there Was not significant difference in the older-age group.ConclusionsWeight-loss intervention may be effective in improving physical and metabolic indicators in adults with over-weight and obesity and reducing the risk of obesity-related diseases.
