Summary

The investigators aim at analyzing whether eating a standard meal in the evening (at 8:00 pm) determines in the same individuals a lower diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) and a different hormonal response than the consumption of the same meal in the morning (at 8:00 am).

The primary outcome is: the intra-individual variation in DIT after the evening and morning meal consumption.

The secondary outcomes are the intra-individual variations in glucose, triglyceride, insulin, free fatty acids, leptin, glucagon-like peptide-1, acylated ghrelin, adrenalin, noradrenalin, after the evening and morning meal consumption.

Conditions

  • Diet-induced Thermogenesis

Interventions

OTHER

calorimetric exam after a standard meal

The calorimetric and metabolic responses to identical meals (a high-protein, low-carbohydrates meal) consumed in the morning (8:00 am) and in the evening (8:00 pm) are measured in healthy volunteers, after standardizing diet, physical activity level, duration of fast and resting
