Summary

This is a six months intervention study in non-diabetic overweight and obese subjects. Subjects will be counseled for weight loss through diet and exercise. Diet and exercise will be recommended as per the regular norms for weight loss (weight loss ≥10% from baseline weight will be considered as a significant loss of weight) for overweight and obese subjects. A sample size of 90 subjects was calculated but assuming a drop out rate of 20%, 110 subjects will be enrolled. Enrolled subjects will be measured at every visit (monthly) for weight, body composition measures of abdominal obesity and skin folds. They would be assessed for compliance with diet and exercise. Detailed analysis of body composition including DXA, biochemical analysis will be performed at enrollment and after six months intervention. Statistical analysis will be performed to find association between measures of body composition for weight loss and genotypes of the VDR polymorphisms.
