Summary

Aim: The purpose was to investigate whether modifiable risk factors for type 2 diabetes can be reduced by an intensive healthy lifestyle intervention designed for Arab Muslim women.

Methods: Women were assigned randomly to either an Exercise and Nutrition Group (ENG) or a Control Group (CG). The ENG attended a women-only supervised exercise program that presented Arabic music and traditional Lebanese Dabka steps three times/week in the Mosque Gym for 12 weeks. A nutritionist was available one hour/week for nutrition education. The CG followed their typical day.
