First-line: lifestyle modifications
Dietary changes: calorie restriction, healthy foods (e.g., fruit/vegetables, protein-rich, unsaturated fats, sodium-restricted)
Physical activity: minimum of 30 minutes moderate exercise per day (2.5 hours per week) , which increases insulin sensitivity, lowers blood pressure, and promotes weight loss
Medical therapy: treat hypertension (e.g., ACE inhibitors), diabetes mellitus, and dyslipidemia (e.g., with statins)
Bariatric surgery: if BMI ≥ 40 and no success with dietary and lifestyle changes
Sleeve gastrectomy (most common): large part of the greater curvature is removed, so that the remaining stomach resembles a sleeve
Roux-en-Y gastric bypass (2nd most common): Roux-en-Y
