Biochemistry is the learn of the chemistry of dwelling organisms, of the ways that nutrition is used to serve all of the many wants of the physique. Biochemistry is heavily attached with foodstuff, the examine of the categories and quantities of varied fabrics required within the vitamin. Biochemistry can be inextricably int~rtwined with endo crinology, the learn of hormones, for many of the hormones exert their activities by means of changing the behaviour of chemical reactions in the physique.

Contrary to common belief, resistance exercise improves insulin sensitivity to approximately the same extent as aerobic exercise [31]. AEROBIC EXERCISE Intensity Aerobic exercise intensity is the most difficult part of the exercise prescription to determine. Various techniques can be used to prescribe and monitor exercise intensity [32]. The most commonly used technique is the heart rate method, which is based on the linear relationship that exists between heart rate and exercise intensity. Exercise intensity typically is prescribed as a percentage of a patient’s maximal heart rate (HRmax).
While this estimate may be reasonably accurate in sedentary people, it may not be as accurate in individuals who exercise regularly and/or intensely; have autonomic neuropathy; or who are taking medications known to alter HRmax such as -blockers. The American College of Sports Medicine recommends an intensity of exercise for healthy adults corresponding to 55–90% of the HRmax [32]. Since higher-intensity exercise is associated with a greater risk of cardiovascular or musculoskeletal injury than exercise programs emphasizing low- to moderate-intensity (55–70% of the HRmax), low- to moderateintensity exercise may be preferable for most people with metabolic syndrome.
4%. High-density lipoprotein (HDL) increased after the exercise intervention by 3% in both men and women [14]. Benefits in hyperlipidemic patients may be even greater. WEIGHT LOSS The effect of exercise on weight loss deserves special mention. Many physicians and patients mistakenly believe that if they eat the same amount, but exercise more, they will lose weight. If the patient’s primary goal is to lose weight, they must be counseled to reduce caloric intake in addition to becoming more active.
