Authors' recommendations:
Most non-surgical intervention programs aimed to reduce weight in overweight and obese subjects result in a modest weight reduction of about 5 to 10 kg, although weight reduction can be substantial in individual patients. It is unclear whether such weight reductions are associated with beneficial effects on mortality or cardiovascular morbidity.
