Brief Summary

The effect of weight loss with long-term low calorie diet (LCD) on plasma metabolites is unknown. The aim was to examine whether a LCD-induced weight reduction results in changes in the extended plasma metabolites.

Detailed Description

Overweight/obese subjects (25≤ BMI \<33 kg/m2) aged 40 to 59 years consumed a LCD (an approximate 100 kcal/day calorie deficit) or a weight-maintenance diet (control) in a randomized, controlled design with 3-year intervention period.
