Main Characteristics of Lipid and Carbohydrate Metabolism Observed in Young Males With Different Somatotypes of Northeast Russia

Our research was aimed at studying main parameters of lipid and carbohydrate metabolism in North-born young males, Europeans by origin, with different somatotypes. According to the examinee's body type, we found 45 % of them sthenic, 29 % hypersthenic and 26 % asthenic. Blood biochemicals proved to range within the referent indices; however, the average lipid indices were close to the lower line of the norm. Of note that, those indices grew higher from asthenic subjects to hypersthenic ones. The most lipid disorders were observed in hypersthenic examinees while asthenic subjects demonstrated no deviation among the indices of lipid spectrum. As for carbohydrate study, all the examinees showed their values close to the upper line of the normoglycemia. Of them, hypersthenic subjects were the highest in glucose
