"The LG diet will comprise 20% carbohydrate, 30% protein, and 50% fat (\<10% saturated fat). It will have a low glycaemic load; include plant and animal protein; non-starchy vegetables and salad greens; and some low-sugar fruit. Participants will be encouraged to incorporate a variety of foods rich in monounsaturated and polyunsaturated fats in their diet.~The control diet will comprise 50% carbohydrate, 20% protein and 30% total fat (\<10% saturated fat). It will reflect the Health Promotion Board's (HPB) recommendations to reduce dietary fat, emphasize wholegrains and include a variety of fruits and vegetables. In contrast to the LG diet, the control diet will have a higher glycaemic load with a greater proportion of energy derived from unrefined carbohydrate foods.~Concurrent to the dietary intervention and consistent with physical activity guidelines, all participants will undertake a 60-min structured exercise program incorporating aerobic/ resistance exercises 3-4 days/week."
