[Effect of a reducing diet and physical activity in obese individuals with arterial hypertension].
The effects of reducing diet of 4.4 MJ with reduced daily sodium chloride intake and physical activity (walking and floor exercise) in 90 patients of the Counseling office for Dietetics (23 males and 67 females) with excessive obesity and arterial hypertension (AH) were examined. Although both groups of patients were of the similar nutritional status, rate of the body mass loss during the diet was significantly higher in males (p < 0.05). At the end of the diet therapy, beside reduced body mass, significantly lower average systolic and diastolic pressure (p < 0.01) was observed in both sexes. Correlation analysis showed significant positive correlation between the weight loss rate and reduced diastolic pressure (p < 0.05) only in females.
