Abstract
Aims: To investigate how time-blinded obese and lean men compensate
for a 3-day energy-restrictive diet.
Methods: Subjects were randomly put on a three-day energy-restrictive
(ER) (67% energy restriction) and a three-day energy-balanced
(EB) diet, with a washout period of one month. Both diets were
followed by a 24-hour time-blinded (overnight) stay at the research
facility. In the morning, the subjects received breakfast and were told
to ask for lunch if they felt hungry. When requested, subjects received
an ad libitum lunch. Starting before breakfast till two hours after a
meal request, measurements were taken at irregular time intervals.
Transcriptomics, ghrelin and leptin data are still being processed.
Results: Eleven obese (BMI 33.2 ± 0.8 kg/m2; age 40.8 ± 4.7 y) and
nine lean (BMI 23.2 ± 0.5 kg/m2; age 33.2 ± 4.8 y) healthy men completed
the study. The insulin response of the obese subjects after both
meals was higher (p
