The diseases derived from Metabolic Syndrome caused 75% of the total deaths. It is more profitable to invest in prevention than in the treatment of most cardiovascular diseases. Several institutions consider prevention as one of the main priorities in public health.

Patients with Metabolic Syndrome, undergoing Mediterranean diet and exercise program, will have lower fat mass, greater lean mass and muscle strength; in addition to the lower expression of proinflammatory biomarkers, compared to those subjected to standard diet and exercise.

OBJECTIVE: To evaluate the changes in body composition and cardiovascular risk in the population with metabolic syndrome undergoing a Mediterranean diet program and / or controlled physical activity.

Design: Experimental, longitudinal design, controlled clinical trial, randomized. Population with Metabolic Syndrome in which the effect of Mediterranean diet and / or controlled physical activity will be compared on anthropometric parameters, body composition, cardiometabolic risk and plasma biomarkers.
