Abstract
⺠We studied the impact of a well-balanced diet and exercise on the skeleton of obese rat. ⺠Both diet and exercise had decreased weight and fat mass of obese rats. ⺠The diet alone did not alter bone mass and BMD despite micro-architecture changes. ⺠Exercise improved BMD of the tibia through an inhibition of bone resorption. ⺠A balanced diet with exercise is effective to treat obesity and protect bone mass.
