The 76 subjects were BMI>24 and 20-45 years old. The were divided into three groups according to various interventions: nutritional education group（N，n＝29）;exercise group（E，n＝23）and nutritional education combine exercise group（NE，n＝24）for 12 weeks. The “N” group was instructed to take a balance , low calorie diet and 1.5 hours of nutritional education per week . The “E” group was asked to take 1 hour exercise class and three times of voluntary exercise per week . The “NE” group was instructed to take both of the above. The anthropometric examination, blood pressure, blood biochemical tests and questionnaire were evaluated before and after intervention. We find that（1）there were statistically significant decreases in the body weight, BMI, waist circumference, waist hip ratio, systolic pressure, diastolic pressure（P＜0.05）in NE group. The hip circumference were significantly higher in N and E groups.（2）Mean blood glucose concentration in E group was significantly decreased, whereas the mean HDL values was increased in NE group.（3）the dietary questionnaire showed that the score of food kinds and methods of cooking as well as total scores were significantly higher in N and NE group. The calorie intake was significantly lower after intervention in all three groups.（4）The exercise output was significantly increase in NE group. It were positively correlated to the changes in intakes of calorie, carbonhydrate, protein, and fat change in body weight. The result of this study demonstrated that the effect in NE group was better than N or E group.
