The systolic and diastolic blood pressure was significantly lowered. The HDL-cholesterol and maximum oxygen consumption significantly increased. <BR>  The results of the dietary habit analysis confirmed that many items have improved regarding obesity. For those with hypertension, whose dietary habits were desirable, showed improvements in the items of intake of vegetable, fruits and salt after the intervention.<BR>  These results indicated that a 12-week lifestyle modification program consisting of exercise and nutritional guidance, effectively improved this dietary life.<BR>  In conclusion, the implementation of a health promotion program provided a chance for the participants to reconsider and improve their lifestyle.
