The Metabolic Syndrome and Obesity
Author: George A. BrayPublisher: Springer Science & Business Media
ISBN: 1597454311
Category : Science
Languages : en
Pages : 307
Book Description
This book presents an up-to-date survey of the current scientific understanding of obesity and the metabolic syndrome, as well as an overview of the most significant changes to the field over the past 30 years. The book defines obesity and realistically assesses its prevalence. It further examines and evaluates the success of traditional cognitive behavioral treatment. This volume is a thorough reference for obesity and the metabolic syndrome.

Book Description
Diet and exercise are key components to overall health maintenance. Aspects contributing to weight maintenance include the thermic effect of food (TEF) and total energy expenditure (TEE), with TEF contributing to upwards of 10% TEE. PURPOSE: The purpose of this study was to determine the interaction between TEF and exercise on TEE in moderately active females. METHODS: A sample population was established with the use of a health history questionnaire (HHQ). Ten active females of normal body composition, determined by body mass index (BMI) and a dual energy absorptiometry x-ray (DEXA) scan, participated in the study. Maximal aerobic capacity was determined using the standard Bruce graded exercise treadmill test. Participants returned for three additional testing sessions, each consisting of a different feeding protocol combined with 30 minutes of exercise performed at 60% VO2max . RESULTS: Repeated measures ANOVA indicated a significant time effect for the feeding protocols (&agr; = .05). Post-hoc analyses indicated significantly greater TEF with high protein content compared to low and fasted as well as in low protein compared to the fasted condition. Combined with exercise, TEE was significantly greater under high protein conditions compared to fasted. No significance was found between the high and low protein conditions combined with exercise or with the low protein compared to fasted. CONCLUSION: Findings of this study indicate a relationship between protein content of a meal, TEF, and TEE with moderate-intensity exercise. High protein meal (45%) consumption potentiated a greater TEF and overall TEE in comparison to low protein meal (15%) consumption. In relation to exercise and TEE, significance was only found when comparing high protein meal consumption and exercise to the fasted state with exercise. Trends for increased TEF with exercise were present for exercise performed after consumption of a low protein meal compared to the high protein meal and the fasted state, though not statistically significant. Further research should be conducted examining chronic exposure to a high protein diet combined with exercise to observe potential increased interactions longitudinally. Additionally, a broader spectrum of populations should be studied to better understand protein metabolism and TEE potentiated through TEF and exercise.

The Thermic Effect of Food in Energy Deficient Women

Book Description
Women suffering from anorexia nervosa, an extreme case of starvation and energy deficiency, exhibit altered metabolism in response to ingestion of a caloric load. The possibility of this phenomena has yet to be investigated in exercising women with functional hypothalamic amenorrhea (FHA), a condition which is often secondary to moderate energy deficiency. The purpose of this study was to characterize and compare the metabolic profiles of young, exercising women with either amenorrheic or eumenorrheic menstrual statuses. 7 amenorrheic (AMEN) and 9 ovulatory, eumenorrheic control (OV) women, who participated in aerobic or resistance training for at least 3 hr/wk, ingested a 700 kcal liquid mixed macronutrient meal (14% protein, 64% carbohydrate, and 22% fat) and underwent measurements of resting energy expenditure (REE), thermic effect of food (TEF), and respiratory quotient (RQ) by indirect calorimetry over a 6 hour period. Paired t-tests were used to compare REE measurements and TEF area under the curve (AUC). Two-way (group*time) repeated measures ANOVA were conducted to assess differences in absolute TEF (kcal/day), relative TEF (kcal/kgFFM/day), and RQ. Groups did not significantly differ in age, height, body mass, gynecological age, body fat percentage, fat mass, fat free mass, or lean body mass. BMI was different between the groups, where the OV group had a significantly higher BMI than the AMEN group (p=0.024). There were no significant differences between groups for ratio of measured REE to Harris-Benedict predicted REE (p=0.448) or TEF AUC (p=0.692). There were no significant (p>0.05) interaction or main effects for absolute (kcal/day) REE or relative (kcal/kgFFM/day) REE. There was no significant interaction or main effect for group with respect to RQ (p>0.05), but there was a significant main effect for time (p=0.006) with RQ significantly increasing from rest 15 minutes postprandially. These results suggest that metabolic adjustments, such as elevated TEF and a higher postprandial reliance on carbohydrate, typically seen in anorexia nervosa are not present in less severe cases of energy deficiency. However, future research is required to more thoroughly assess energetic status.
