Abstract EN
Background: Metabolic syndrome can cause cardiovascular disease and diabetes in the affected subjects.
With 20 to 30% prevalence rate among the adult population of most countries, it is considered a pandemic problem.
The guidelines currently available on the management of the specific components of metabolic syndrome highlight some lifestyle changes such as enhanced physical activity and weight reduction.
Adherence to Mediterranean-style diet has been shown to be associated with lower risk of metabolic syndrome in some clinical studies.
Objectives: The aim of this study was the evaluation of the effect Razavi dietary pattern, on metabolic syndrome.
This is the first study performed to address this issue.
Patients and Methods: Seventy five eligible subjects with metabolic syndrome were recruited into a single-blind randomized controlled clinical trial to determine the effect of Razavi diet on metabolic syndrome.
Intervention was carried out by educating the Razavi diet in the experimental group while giving no dietary recommendations to the control group.
The level of physical activity was similar between the two groups.
Features of the metabolic syndrome as defined by the criteria of the Iranian National Committee of Obesity were assessed after two months.
Results: The net reduction in the waist circumference (-2.85), weight (-1.44) and BMI (-0.58) in test group was significantly (P < 0.001) higher than the control.
Decreases in systolic and diastolic blood pressure, fasting blood sugar and triglycerides were observed but were not statistically significant.
Conclusions: The results suggest that Razavi diet can improve some components of metabolic syndrome leading to reduced risk of cardiovascular disease and diabetes.
