"We know that metabolic health, in the context of obesity, is a transient state that may not persist over time, and these individuals are at increased risk of developing different
comorbidities," said co-author Sharon V Thompson, a dietitian and pre-doctoral fellow at the University of Illinois. The study authors recommend consuming unsaturated fats along with a
calorie-restricted diet and increased physical activity for the greatest benefits. "This can be accomplished in small, simple steps, such as substituting olive oil and canola oil while
cooking, and increasing one's consumption of fish, nuts, fruits and vegetables," said Dr Margarita Teran-Garcia, study author and nutritional sciences professor at the University
of Illinois. "These strategies could not only reduce an individual's risk of obesity-related diseases but also help them get to a healthy weight."
