The assessment was based on body fat percentage, visceral fat percentage, serum TSH values, and Zulewski__ampersandsign#39;s clinical score. Statistical analysis showed a significant reduction in Visceral fat percentage, TSH value, and Zulewski__ampersandsign#39;s clinical score with p-value </abstract>
