Exercise, diet best offset metabolic syndrome risks.(Clinical Rounds)
ORLANDO, FLA. -- Moderate-intensity exercise that is coupled with caloric restriction was better than exercise alone for inducing favorable changes in waist circumference in women in a recent study.
This combination approach to lifestyle modification was particularly beneficial for reducing waist circumference, which is important, because central adiposity is widely considered to be the central aspect of the metabolic syndrome, Theodore J. Angelopoulos, Ph.D., said at an international conference on women, heart disease, and stroke.
Of 98 women with an average age of 43 years who were randomly assigned to either an exercise only group or an exercise and caloric restriction group, all experienced improvements in the various components of metabolic syndrome.
In addition to waist circumference, these included glucose, HDL cholesterol and triglyceride levels, and diastolic and systolic blood pressure, said Dr. Angelopoulos of Rippe Lifestyle Institute in Celebration, Fla. at a news conference at the meeting.
