Abstract Background: Lifestyle behaviors, including diet and exercise, are the cornerstone of weight control and human health. Over the last 50 years, many studies ensured that diet and nutritional factors play strong roles in the prevention/development of chronic diseases, such as dyslipidemia, obesity and metabolic syndrome, as well as mortality. Purpose: Of current study was to compare the effect of restricted mediterranean diet, restricted low fat diet and restricted balanced diet each combined with endurance training exercise on body weight and blood lipids (total cholesterol (TC), triglycerides (TG), low density lipoprotein cholesterol (LDL) and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL) in obese women. Subjects: 60 obese women with age of 20-40 years were selected by distributed random way for this study; their body mass indexes (BMI) were ranged from 30-34.99 kg/m2 (obesity class I according WHO classification) 2010). They were randomly divided into three groups (A, B and C) each group included 20 subjects and this study applied for 12 week for measurement of body weight, BMI and blood lipids (TC, TG, LDL and HDL). Methods: The three groups received endurance training exercise (moderate intensity, three times/week) in form of bicycling using stationary bicycle plus the diet models detected for each group, (group A) included those on restricted mediterranean diet (1200 cal/day, daily), (group B) included those on restricted low fat diet (1200 cal/day, daily) and (group C) included those on restricted balanced diet 1200 cal/day, daily |
