The problem of tinnitus (subjective type) is prevalent in obese older adults with different diseases such as metabolic syndrome. The changes of lifestyle are very important to lose weight, improve tinnitus and metabolic syndrome
Time-restricted Eating Versus Daily Continuous Calorie Restriction on Body Weight and Colorectal Cancer Risk Markers
Approximately 42% of American adults are obese, and this condition is strongly related to the development of colorectal cancer. Innovative lifestyle strategies to treat obesity and reduce colorectal cancer risk are critically needed. This research will demonstrate that time-restricted eating, a type of intermittent fasting, is an effective therapy to …
A Weight Management Intervention for Overweight Chinese Cancer Survivors
This study aims to conduct a feasibility trial to examine the feasibility and acceptability of conducting a randomized controlled trial that evaluates the effect of the weight management intervention on anthropometric measures (body weight and BMI), dietary quality, physical activity levels, physical and psychosocial functioning, selfefficacy for weight loss and …
Exercise Effects on Adipose Tissue Structure and Function
Participants will be randomized into one of two different experimental groups: 1) Exercise group and 2) No exercise (control group). Subject participation in the study will involve a series of metabolic tests before and after participants undergo a 10% weight loss program (with or without exercise training depending on group …
