riboflavin/obesity

In a previous study, exercise was shown to increase riboflavin requirements of active, normal weight young women. The present study examined the effect of exercise and weight loss on riboflavin status of moderately overweight women. The experiment was designed as a two-period cross-over with an

Erythrocyte acid phosphatase (ACP locus 1), also known as low-molecular-weight protein tyrosine phosphatase, has previously been associated to glycemia, dyslipidemia, and obesity. In this study, ACP1 genotype and activity were tested in 318 women aged 19 to 83 (mean, 51.74 +/- 13.44) years. ACP1

Eighteen women participated in a prospective study to assess the need for supplemental riboflavin after gastroplasty. Three groups of five patients received either a placebo or 0.6 or 1.2 mg riboflavin daily for up to 12 months, except during months 4 and 7 when all participants were given a

UNASSIGNED The study examined the baseline findings of a controlled intervention study comprising anthropometric measurements, nutrient intakes, and physical activity among overweight or obese children in Kota Bharu, Kelantan, Malaysia. UNASSIGNED The study was completed in 2016 and the baseline

BACKGROUND The global increased prevalence of obesity and diabetes occurred after the worldwide spread of B-vitamins fortification, in which whether long-term exposure to high level of B vitamins plays a role is unknown. Our aim was to examine the relationships between B-vitamins consumption and the

OBJECTIVE To assess the influence of a low-fat, low-energy diet on the intake of vitamins and minerals in patients with overweight and hyperlipidemia. METHODS Outpatient clinic for hyperlipidemia treatment. METHODS A total of 134 subjects chosen from patients attending Outpatient Clinic of Metabolic

One option for controlled weight loss for dogs and cats in overweight condition could be to modestly restrict caloric intake using a reduced-energy ('light') maintenance diet, but there is no prior research on the safety and efficacy of such an approach. A prospective observational cohort study was

The caloric and nutrient intakes, weight, percent overweight and growth of obese and lean children aged 8-12 were compared at baseline and after the obese children participated in a six month family-based behavioral weight control program. At baseline there were no significant differences in the

The study objective was to evaluate the realization of the reducing diet recommended in the treatment of overweight or obesity (1500 kcal) with regard to the caloric value and the content of basic nutrients, vitamins and bioelements. The study was conducted on a group of 48 women. Daily food rations

OBJECTIVE To assess the nutritional status and prevalence of obesity among children with Down syndrome (DS). METHODS The study group comprised pre-pubertal children, with clinically and cytogenetically proven DS. Healthy siblings, closest in age to the DS children, were used as a control group. Body

1. An unsupplemented 4200 kJ (1000 kcal) diet emphasizing large quantities of relatively unrefined complex carbohydrates was evaluated among sixty obese adults for its effectiveness and nutritional adequacy in a long-term weight-control programme. Patients were followed individually as outpatients

Werner syndrome (WS) is a rare autosomal recessive disease with poor growth, premature aging, scleroderma-like skin changes, endocrine abnormalities, and deficiencies of adipose tissue. Could there be a genetic obesity syndrome which offers an instructive contrast to at least one form of WS? At

Diet composition is a key determinant of childhood obesity. While whole grains and micronutrients are known to decrease the risk of obesity, there are no interventions originating from Southeast Asia that emphasize whole grain as a strategy to improve overall quality of diet in combating childhood

Comparative analysis of vitamin C, B2 and A sufficiency evaluation of the patients suffering from obesity and cardiovascular diseases has been done by means of rated vitamin intake on the basis of foodstuff consumption frequency and blood serum level detection. According to both methods the surveyed

Mean daily intake of all foods except cereals i.e. pulses, green leafy vegetables, roots and tubers, fruits, milk and milk products, sugar and fats of Indian obese male respondents was higher than the values recommended by Indian Council of Medical Research (ICMR, 1987). The consumption of fat and
