Presents a study which tested the hypothesis that obese postmenopausal women would demonstrate a disproportionate loss in fat-free body mass (FFM) with weight loss produced by a hypocaloric diet. Concerns regarding the prescription of weight loss treatments for older individuals; Methodology used; ...
Weight lossBone turnoverOsteoarthritisPostmenopausalThe choice of hypocaloric diets in obesity can affect bone health. The aim of this study is to assess the effect of a hypocaloric diet in postmenopausal obese women and to determine the influence of weight reduction on bone metabolism. This was ...

Body weight, body-mass index, waist and hip circumferences, visceral fat by computed tomography and sex hormones were evaluated before and after 4 weeks on a very low energy diet. Results. Body-mass index was higher in pre- than in postmenopausal women, although the difference was not ...
Overweight, insufficiently active women were randomised to a diet (N = 97), mainly exercise (N = 98) or control group (N = 48). The goal of both interventions was to achieve 5–6 kg of weight loss by following a calorie-restricted diet or an intensive exercise programme combined with ...
Growth hormone, the principal inducing factor for IGF-I synthesis in the liver, is further stimulated by insulin. Therefore, these hormones could potentially contribute to changes in IGF-I level [41]. Medications, smoking, age, BMI, health status, diet, acute or chronic PA, trained/untrained ...
Effects of diet type on visceral fat reduction Conclusion The short-term dietary treatment using the CED or the MED was associated with similar improvements in some anthropometric, lipid, and nonlipid parameters; however, adequate adherence to the prescribed diet is important in weight loss success ...
The present study evaluated the plasma metabolic response in relation to insulin sensitivity after weight loss via diet intervention. Methods This work includes two studies; i) Ten women on a 5 weeks Paleolithic-type diet (PD, 30 energy percent (E%) protein, 40 E% fat, 30 E% carbohydrates...
Better understanding of this relationship will provide new opportunities for early intervention and ultimately help in the prevention of bone loss in postmenopausal women. 展开 关键词:Bone and Bones Humans Osteoporosis, Postmenopausal Reproductive History Body Mass Index Diet Risk Factors Attitude to ...
Preventive strategies to improve bone health include diet, exercise and abstaining from smoking. Fractures may be prevented by reducing falls in high-risk populations. Several drugs are licensed to reduce fracture risk by slowing down bone resorption (such as bisphosphonates and denosumab) or by ...
