Abstract:
The proposed study is important and relevant in view of the increasing level of obesity
in the world. Preventive interventions are important to reduce long-term health care costs and
improve overall population health as health care systems struggle with the financial burden of
obesity-related diseases.
Hypodynamia and obesity act as predictors of the development of atherosclerosis and

Hypodynamia and obesity act as predictors of the development of atherosclerosis and
metabolic syndrome. It is worth noting that the level of vitamin D in blood serum affects the
development of the risk factors listed above. Research results demonstrate an inverse relationship between the level of 25-hydroxyvitamin D in blood serum and the development
of obesity, metabolic syndrome, and insulin resistance.
As part of a prospective randomized controlled trial, 106 women aged 19 to 68 years
(mean age 43.66±5.02 years) who had a BMI of 25 kg/m2 or higher were examined.
Measures (weight, body mass index, 25(OH)D) were assessed at the start of the study and
every four weeks to monitor development and dietary compliance for 6 months. After six
months of individual dietary adjustments, body weight and BMI were significantly reduced.
Participants reduced their weight on average by 7.13±0.78 kg and 2.53±0.19 kg/m2
(p<0.001). Individualized dietary adjustments resulted in significant weight loss, highlighting
the value of individualized dietary interventions for effective weight management. A link
between excess body weight and vitamin D deficiency has been established.
