Summary

Obese HIV-positive women with Metabolic Syndrome (HIV-MS) and obese HIV-negative women with Metabolic Syndrome will be studied before and after achieving moderate (6%-8%) diet-induced weight loss. The investigators hypothesize that health markers will improve in both groups but that the improvement will be blunted in the women with HIV-MS.

Conditions

  • HIV (Human Immunodeficiency Virus)
  • Metabolic Syndrome
  • HIV Infections

Interventions
