| Summary: | Introduction: Metabolic Syndrome (MS) is a disorder caused by a set of factors of metabolic origin, being directly related to the presence of obesity. The dietary reeducation is of fundamental importance for the prevention of Obesity and MS, therefore, the aim of this study was to verify the impact of nutritional orientation on the parameters of the Metabolic Syndrome in adult women. Methods: The study was carried out in 15 female patients, aged 35-59 years, with MS, through the application of a questionnaire and nutritional guidelines. The patients were evaluated at the second individual visit after 70 to 80 days of the first one, in order to reassess the same anthropometric parameters and the same laboratory tests, which were requested at the end of the first visit. Results: Every patients were sedentary and did not diet before the first consultation. When reevaluated after the nutritional guidelines, 14 patients (93.3%) had a reduction in abdominal circumference and 13 patients (86.6%) had a reduction in abdominal fat percentage. Fasting glycemia and triglycerides showed a significant reduction, occurring in 86.6% and 100% of the cases, respectively. Of the 14 patients who performed the proposed diet, 3 had the resolution of MS. Conclusion: With this study, it was possible to conclude that the nutritional orientation and the balanced, hypocaloric and hypoglossuric diet are able to aid in the reduction of abdominal fat, plasma glucose levels and triglycerides, improving the parameters of MS and can lead to resolution. |
