Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
Weight loss around 10% of the diet and exercise group of obesity in the pre and post intervention measurements;Reduction of the body fat percentage of both groups measured through the bioimpedance result pre and post intervention measurements;Improvement of biochemical parameters related to inflammation and oxidative stress (catalase, superoxide desmutase, glutathione, tumor necrosis factor, interleukin-6) in the pre and post intervention measurements;Reduced insulin resistance (HOMA-IR) pre and post intervention measurements

Secondary
