05/01/2008 - "The main results show that Intervention group (I) had a statistically significant improvement compared to Usual Care (UC) in the assumption of recommended quantity of fruit and vegetables (78.4% I vs 38.8% UC p=0.005), in the weight loss (weight loss > al 5% in subjects with BMI > 25 kg/m2) (16.5% I vs 6.8% UC p=0.005), in blood pressure control both in people specifically treated with drugs and untreated (respectively 52% I vs 35% UC p=0.04 and 65% Ivs 45% UC p=0.02), in reaching the European target for total cholesterol (Total Cholesterol < 5.0 mmol/l) during the study year (from 21.9% to 35.8% (I) absolute increase 12.7% (p=0.025) vs from 33% to 32.2% (UC)). "

05/01/1995 - "At follow-up, high active patients maintained significantly greater weight loss, had a lower percent regain and a significantly greater decrease in total cholesterol (P < 0.05) than less active patients. "
