Eligibility

Inclusion criteria

Inclusion criteria: A total of 16 subjects (8 males and 8 females) with BMI 20-30 kg/m2 and aged between 18- 50 years will be included in the study. All subjects will be healthy, non-smoking, not using a more than moderate amount of alcohol (> 10 consumptions/wk) or caffeine-containing beverages (> 2 cups/d), being weight stable (weight change < 3kg during the last 6 months), dietary unrestraint and not using medication or supplements except for oral contraceptives in women.

Exclusion criteria

Exclusion criteria: Subjects will be excluded if they are not healthy, smoking, using a more than moderate amount of alcohol or caffeine-containing beverages, not being weight stable, dietary restraint, using medication or supplements except for oral contraceptives in women, or if they do not meet the criteria for BMI and age. Pregnant and lactating women, and subjects with allergies for the used food items will also be excluded from participation.

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frame
The primary endpoint of this study is the change in 36h energy expenditure.

Secondary

MeasureTime frame
1. Substrate oxidation (fat and carbohydrates); 2. Sleeping metabolic rate (SMR); 3. Diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT); 4. Activity induced thermogenesis (AEE); 5. Substrate oxidation: carbohydrate, protein, respiratory quotient (RQ); 6. Feelings of hunger and satiety: VAS for hunger, fullness, appetite, satiety, thirst, prospective food consumption, desire to eat; 7. Ad libitum energy intake; 8. Age; 9. Body composition: body weight, BMI, body fat percentage, fat mass index (FMI); 10. Body fat distribution: Waist circumference, waist-to-hip ratio (WHR).
