Obesity has become a national health problem due to its increasing frequency and accompanying diseases throughout the world and in our country. Obesity, described as excessive fat accumulation and storage in the body, affects more than 300 million people according to the World Health Organization. Obesity is an independent risk factor for cardiovascular diseases, and obese people often have an increased risk in terms of developing diseases such as hypertension, dyslipidemia and type 2 diabetes. Weight loss provides an improvement in these comorbid conditions associated with obesity. For this purpose, a prospective and observational study was conducted to the Mersin University Family Medicine Clinic with 178 cases of women with the cause of obesity between January 2014-August 2014 in order to determine the effectiveness of nutrition in the prevention of cardiovascular risk factors associated with obesity and to see the effects of nutrition on the 10-year risk of cardiovascular disease. Method and method: The cases taken to the study were followed by 6 months of nutritional treatment for obesity. After the first arrival of cases and 6 months of nutritional treatment, the body mass index, blood pressure, laboratory data (lipid profile) and the 'Framingham Heart Study' results were created using the seven parameters (age, gender, blood pressure, LDL-cholesterol, HDL-cholesterol, smoking or non-smoking and diabetes) based on the 10-year cardiovascular risk calculation system. Results: There were no significant decreases in the parameters assessed prior to dietary treatment of cases after dietary treatment, but there were significant decreases in the risk of developing cardiovascular disease within 10 years of cases. The result: even when we can provide very small improvements that don’t seem meaningful in obesity and related parameters in obesity cases, our protection rates from the risk of cardiovascular disease may be quite meaningful.
