EXPERIMENTAL

Participants will reduce total fat intake to 17 percent of calories, 1300 kilo calories, and increase moderate activity to 150-240 minutes per week to obtain a 10 percent reduction in weight.

Behavioral: Diet, fat-restrictedBehavioral: Exercise

Interventions

Reduction in total, saturated, trans fat, cholesterol, calories. Increase in fiber. Promotion of nutrient-dense, high-volume, low calorie foods.
