Is a calorie-restriction diet supplemented with fish oil and high-protein powder associated with reduced severity of metabolic syndrome in obese women?
Our study results indicate that a calorie-restriction dietary intervention combined with various macronutrients can reduce the severity of MetS in women and increase recovery from MetS by almost twofold in comparison with a CR alone.
The protection capability of pharmacological substances against desiccation can be studied in a standardised cell culture system of human epithelial cell lines. Whether these in vitro results are conferrable to the efficacy of artificial tear drops in vivo has to be evaluated in clinical trials.
