(Fontana et al., 2004; Meyer et al., 2006).

Basal Metabolic Rate decrease: Serum triiodothyronine (T3)

(Fontana et al., 2006).

Left ventricular (LV) diastolic function improvement: Diastolic function indexes similar to those of ~16 yr younger

individuals, LV stiffness significantly lower: reduced LV fibrosis.
