Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes of percent body fat(trunk, total ect.)Baseline, Week 12

Measurement is made using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry(DEXA)

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Changes of indicator of lipid metabolismBaseline, Week 12

Indicator of lipid metabolism(i.e., Total cholesterol, Triglyceride, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol)

Changes of obesity-related hormone indexBaseline, Week 12

Obesity-related hormone indexes(Adiponectin, Leptin etc.). As blood adiponectin levels increase, blood leptin concentrations decrease, indicating a positive change.

Changes of fat free mass(trunk, total ect.)Baseline, Week 12

Measurement of the target area is made using dual-energy X-ray absorptiometry (DEXA)

Changes of total abdominal fat area, visceral fat area and subcutaneous fat areaBaseline, Week 12

Measurement of the target area is made using computed tomography (CT)

Changes of waist, hip circumference and waist/hip circumference ratioBaseline, Week 12
