Females who met the inclusion and exclusion criteria were allocated in groups of one to either the Control group or the Intervention (MD) group using a random assignment method applied by an independent statistician. During the trial, every participant in both groups had two individual sessions with the assigned researchers. These sessions took place at the beginning of the trial and three months later, and involved anthropometry measurements, evaluation of dietary habits, assessment of psychological well-being, and collection of blood samples.
