Abstract
The present study compared the effectiveness of a mild calorie-restricted diet (D) alone, exercise (EX) alone and a combination
of D+EX on weight loss-induced blood pressure (BP) reduction over 24 weeks. We focussed especially on the relationship
between sympathetic nervous activity, as indicated from measures of plasma norepinephrine (NE), and insulin resistance
(homeostasis model of insulin resistance, HOMA-IR).
