Determination of total energy expenditure, resting metabolic rate and physical activity in lean and overweight people (original) (raw)
Summary
A new2H/1H and18O/16O equilibration device was tested, standardized and employed for the determination of total energy expenditure. It was shown that overweight men and women have increased resting metabolic rate as well as increased total energy expenditure when compared to their lean counterparts. The physical activity level (PAL)index was slightly decreased which possibly suggests a decreased physical activity in obese people.
Zusammenfassung
Für die Bestimmung des Gesamtenergieumsatzes wurde eine neuartige2H/1H-und18O/16O-Äquilibriereinheit getestet, optimiert und eingesetzt. Es konnte gezeigt werden, daß übergewichtige Frauen und Männer, verglichen mit schlanken Probanden, sowohl erhöhte Ruhe-Nüchternumsätze, als auch erhöhte Gesamtenergieumsätze aufweisen. Der physical activity level (PAL)-Index weist tendenziell eine Verminderung auf, was eine erniedrigte physische Aktivität bei Übergewichtigen vermuten läßt.
