Eligibility Criteria
Inclusion Criteria
- •Obese individuals
- •\- Age 18\-65 years
- •\- Caucasian (because of ethnic differences in microvascular function and in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease and associated risk factors)
- •\- Waist circumference \> 102 cm (men)/\> 88 cm (women) ;Lean individuals
- •\- Age 18\-65 years
- •\- Caucasian (because of ethnic differences in microvascular function and in the prevalence of cardiovascular disease and associated risk factors)
- •\- Waist circumference \< 94 cm (men)/\< 80 cm (women)
Exclusion Criteria
- •\- Cardiovascular disease (stroke, coronary artery disease, peripheral vascular disease, congestive heart failure, cardiac shunts, cardiac surgery, pulmonary hypertension, cardiac arrhythmias, family history of cardiac arrhythmias or sudden cardiac death)
- •\- Diabetes mellitus/impaired glucose metabolism (fasting glucose values \> 6\.1 mmol/L), because not only diabetes, but also intermediate hyperglycaemia has been associated with microvascular disease, which impedes the distinction between cause and consequence of disturbances in glucose metabolism in the concerning individuals
- •\- Stage 3 hypertension (blood pressure \> 180/110 mm Hg) in order not to expose these persons to unnecessary risks
- •\- Unstable or severe pulmonary disease
- •\- Unstable or severe thyroid disorders
- •\- Inflammatory diseases
- •\- Smoking (due to impairment of microvascular function)
- •\- Alcohol use \> 2 U/day (women)/\> 3 U/day (men)
- •\- Use of glucose\-lowering medications, because of interference with microvascular function
- •\- Use of corticosteroids (might cause hypertension and interfere with electrolyte homeostasis and glucose metabolism) and regular use (weekly or several times a week) of NSAIDs (might cause disturbance of microvascular function and electrolyte excretion)
