Abstract   Background: obesity is directly related to dyslipidemia which contributes significantly   to the risk of coronary heart disease, a major cardiovascular disease and a serious   health problem. The aim of this study was to compare the effects of low calorie   diet and those of lovastatin on serum lipoproteins, apo B, homocysteine, and total antioxidant capacity (TAC) in hyperlipidemi...

Background Dislipidaemia and increased levels of apolipoprotein B (apoB) in individuals with obesity are risk factors for development of cardiovascular disease (CVD). The aim of this study was to investigate the effect of weight loss and weight maintenance with and without liraglutide treatment on plasma lipid profiles and apoB. Methods Fifty-eight individuals with obesity (body mass index 34...

We investigated dietary modulation, by energy level and energy source, of two-stage skin tumorigenesis initiated with 7,12-dimethylbenz(a)anthracene and promoted with 12-O-tetradecanoylphorbol-13-acetate in SENCAR mice. Studies comparing the influence of dietary calorie restriction (feeding less carbohydrate and less fat) with diet restriction and with ad libitum control feeding indicated an in...

Changing food consumption patterns and associated greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions have been a matter of scientific debate for decades. The agricultural sector is one of the major GHG emitters and thus holds a large potential for climate change mitigation through optimal management and dietary changes. We assess this potential, project emissions, and investigate dietary patterns and their changes...

Introduction: Obesity is now becoming a growing problem and challenge for medicine. The number of people with excessive body weight has reached more than 2 billion, or about 30% the world's population. purpose this article to identify describe some already known treatments obesity, along latest research on subject, in order show importance developing introducing new methods loss.Aim study: revi...

The aim of this study was to investigate the evolution of the adrenergic and insulin-mediated regulation of lipolysis during different phases of a 6-mo dietary intervention. Eight obese women underwent a 6-mo dietary intervention consisting of a 1-mo very low-calorie diet (VLCD) followed by a 2-mo low-calorie diet (LCD) and 3-mo weight maintenance (WM) diet. At each phase of the dietary interve...

Weight regain after successful weight loss is a big problem in obesity management. This study aimed to investigate whether weight regain after a weight loss period is correlated with the macronutrient composition and/or the inflammatory index of the diet during that period. Sixty one overweight and obese adults participated in this experimental study. Subjects lost approximately 10% of their in...
