24-hour energy expenditure

To assess 24-hour energy expenditure and substrate utilization subjects will spend 23 hours and 15 minutes each day in the metabolic chamber at the UNC NRI. Subjects will be requested to arrive at the study center each morning following a 10hour overnight fast. During each study day, subjects remained sedentary. All meals were provided and were tailored to each subject's specific energy requirements and the study protocol (i.e. 50% or 150% of calorie requirements).
