Abstract

Obesity, metabolic syndrome (MetS), polycystic ovary syndrome (PCOS) and type 2 diabetes mellitus (T2DM) can all lead to cardiovascular disease and premature death. As such, they should be targeted vigorously in order to keep the metabolic factors within desirable ranges (Hanefield & Schaper 2005).
