Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effect of a moderate-intensity, walking exercise program on the body composition, blood lipids and psychosocial outcomes in postmenopausal obese women. Methods: With a quasi-experimental pre- and post-test design, a total of 36 postmenopausal obese women was recruited in 2 metropolitan areas by convenience sampling. Sixteen women participated in 1 hour of moderate-intensity walking exercise 5 days per week for 3 months and 20 women did not. Cardiovascular risk factors include body composition and blood lipids. Body composition was measured as body mass index, % body fat, and waist/hip ratio; Blood lipids were measured with total cholesterol, triglyceride, HDL and LDL; psychosocial outcomes were evaluated by self-esteem and depression. Results: Over 3 months, the score of self-esteem increased and depression decreased in the exercise group relative to the control group. However, there were no significant differences in body composition and blood lipids. Conclusions: This study suggests that 3 months of moderate-intensity exercise training can improve psychosocial outcomes but further studies are needed to replicate walking exercise on physiologic variables among postmenopausal obese women. These findings are of public health relevance and add a new facet to the growing literature on the health benefits of moderate exercise.

This study was to investigate the effects of Bo-Jung-Chi-Seub-Tang administration on body composition, blood biochemistrical factors and hormonal changes during 2 weeks Weight Reduction in TaeKwonDo Athletes. 10 subjects were belong to be in elite athletes of KNUPE. They were divided two groups(administration group and non-administration) by 5 subjects in each group randomly. they were measured about body composition(% Fat, Fat Wt, LBM, TBW), Blood Biochemistrical Factors(glucose, TG, total protein, albumin, BUN, Uric acid, Ca, Pi, Mg) and Hormonal Changes(Renin, Aldosteron). As the results of the experiment, conclusions were made as follows: In terms of % Fat, Fat W.T., Mg, TG, Renin, it was shown significant differences between two groups. Although there were no significant differences, rate of weight reduction and levels of LBM, BUN in Bo-Jung-Chi-Seub-Tang administration group were changed more lower than non-administration group.

This study was performed to investigate nutritional intakes and preference food and blood composition of female college students of premenstrual syndrome. Based on physical measurement test results, both groups showed no noticeable difference and both groups were within the normal range according to body composition analysis. In terms of nutrients consumption, results showed nutritional intakes more than EAR(estimated average requirements) included phosphorus>vitamin $B_6$>vitamin $B_1$, while nutritional intakes less than EAR were vitamin A>vitamin $B_6$>calcium>folic acid. A significant difference was observed for vitamin C intake(p<0.05). The overall mean values of basic blood(WBC, RBC, Hct, and Hb), sex hormone(Estrogen, Progesterone), aldosterone, cortisol, Cu, Zn, and Ca, Mg indices in female college students were within the normal range and there was no significant difference between the PMS group and the Normal group. In conclusion, vitamin C intake of the PMS group showed a level of 84.8% EAR. Therefore vitamin C supplement can be beneficial to relieve the PMS Syndrome.

Purpose: The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a group walking exercise program on body composition, blood lipids and psychological factors at a community. Method: The subjects were 200 women(29 groups) who agreed to participate in group walking exercise for three months. Their ages ranged between 30 to 77 years. A simple walking exercise protocol was given to the participants, which was to do walking over three times a week and over thirty minutes each time. We compared the participants' body composition (BMI, PBF, BFM, FFM, WHR and VFA), blood lipids (HDL C, LDL C, total cholesterol, triglyceride) and exercise-self efficacy, self esteem, and quality of life before and after group walking. Collected data were analyzed through paired t test using the SAS program. Results: BMI. PBF, BFM, WHR, and VFA were significantly reduced (p<.01). However. FFM did not increase significantly (p=.416). There were significant changes in TC and TG (p<.01) but not in LDL C (P=.340). HDL C decreased but within the normal range. Exercise-self efficacy and quality of life did not increase significantly. Only self esteem increased significantly (p<.0001). Conclusion: Group walking exercise had positive effects on body composition, blood lipid and self esteem in community women.

본 연구는 체력관리 수업이 비만도가 각기 다른 여자 대학생들의 신체구성, 혈압 및 건강관련 체력에 미치는 영향이 다른지에 대해 검증하는 것이다. 본 연구의 대상자는 본교 2012~2016년 9학기 동안 체력관리 수업을 수강한 여학생 317명을 대상으로 하였으며, 그룹 구분은 체질량지수와 체지방률(%) 기준으로 저체중, 마른 비만, 정상, 정상 비만 그리고 비만 그룹으로 구분하였다. 체력관리 수업은 저항성 운동과 유산소 운동의 복합운동으로 일일 75분, 주 2회로 구성하여 진행하였다. 본교의 체력관리 수업은 비만 그룹을 제외한 네 그룹의 체중, 체질량지수, 체지방율, 근육량 그리고 허리둘레를 긍정적으로 개선시키는 효과가 있는 것으로 나타났다. 하지만 혈압(SBP, DBP)과 건강관련 체력에서는 다섯 그룹 모두에서 대부분 긍정적으로 개선되는 효과가 있었다. 따라서 체력관리 수업은 비만 여자 대학생의 신체구성의 개선을 제외하고 여자 대학생들의 신체구성과 혈압의 개선 및 건강관련 체력을 향상시키는 것으로 나타났다.

본 연구는 하체 경락 수기요법이 비만 여성들의 신체구성과 혈중지질의 변화에 미치는 영향을 알아보고자 시행되었다. 비만 여성 30명이 실험에 참여하였으며, 하체 경락수기요법군 15명과 반신욕 병행 하체 경락수기요법군 15명을 대상으로 5주간 주2회로 처치하였다. 신체조성의 변화에서 두 집단 모두 BMI, 체지방률, 복부지방률이 감소하였고, 혈중지질의 변화에서도 TC, LDL-C, TG는 감소하였다. HDL-C는 경락수기요법군 0.98%, 반신욕 병행 경락 수기요법군은 1.12%가 증가한 것으로 나타났다. 따라서 하체 경락 수기요법의 5주 처치는 중년 비만 여성들의 신체 구성과 혈중 지질이 감소하여 에스테틱 분야에서의 하체 비만관리 프로그램으로 권장할 수 있으리라 사료된다.

The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of an abdominal obesity management program on a woman's body composition and physiological indicators. A sample of 20 women who were 33 to 62 years old with abdominal obesity (greater than 80cm of waist circumference) participated in the program for 12 weeks. The program consisted of aerobic dance and yoga for one hour, twice a week. Their body composition was measured with BMI, body fat %, waist circumference, and waist/hip ratio. The physiological indicators were measured by systolic blood pressure, blood glucose, total cholesterol, and triglycerides before and after the program. The results showed that waist circumference, waist/hip ratio, and fasting blood glucose decreased significantly after the program. However, BMI, systolic blood pressure, and blood lipids did not change. An abdominal obesity management program with aerobic dance and yoga is partially effective in decreasing abdominal obesity. Further studies are required to replicate the study with a control group using an experimental design.

This study aimed to investigate the improvement effect of 5% (w/w) mung bean (Phaseolus aureus L.) on lipid composition and protein concentration in hyperlipidemic rats. Seven-week-old male (Sprague-Dawley) rats were divided into four groups (n=6, each), and fed experimental diets containing mung bean meal [basal diet+5% (w/w) mung bean (BM), basal-hyperlipidemic diet+5% (w/w) mung bean (BHM)], basal-hyperlipidemic diet (BH), and control (basal diet, BD). Lipid composition in the mung bean diet groups (BM and BHM) evidenced significant reductions in serum total cholesterol, low-density lipoprotein cholesterol, atherosclerotic index, cardiac risk factor, triglyceride, phospholipid, free cholesterol, cholesteryl ester, blood glucose, nonesterified fatty acid, and an elevation in high-density lipoprotein cholesterol. The serum albumin/globulin ratio was increased in mung bean diet-supplemented rats compared to that in hyperlipidemic rats (p < 0.05). Total calcium, phosphorus and potassium concentrations in sera were higher in the BM, BHM and BD groups than in the BH group. Concentrations of sodium and chlorine in sera were lower in the mung bean diet-supplemented groups than in the hyperlipidemic group. The in vivo experiments showed that ingestion of mung bean was effective in improving lipid composition, protein concentration, and blood glucose.
