About

This study will be conducted to investigate the Effect of whole-body vibration on insulin resistance in obese postmenopausal women

Full description

The prevalence of obesity has tripled over the past four decades, imposing an enormous burden on people's health.

Obesity is associated with premature mortality and is a serious public health threat that accounts for a large proportion of the worldwide non-communicable disease burden, including type 2 diabetes, cardiovascular disease, hypertension, and certain cancers.

reported that "Whole-body vibration (WBV) training has been established as a useful method to improve physical fitness in obese individuals. Vibration stimulus during half squatting might suggest a long-term effect of WBV on the endocrine system. Therefore, in this study, The aim to investigate the effect of whole-body vibration on insulin resistance in obese postmenopausal.
