Summary

The aim of this study is to investigate the impact of a high-protein diet (achieved with the use of a nutritional supplement, Almased®) versus a diet of a typical North American macronutrient distribution on energy metabolism, metabolic blood markers and appetite sensations.

This study will be a randomized, controlled, cross-over trial of an acute nutritional intervention. A total of 20 participants will be randomly assigned (1:1) to one of the following groups:

* Control group (CON).
* High protein diet group (HP).

The diets given to participants in both groups will be eucaloric.

While receiving the diets in the whole body calorimetry unit for 32 hours, participants' overall changes in energy metabolism, metabolic blood markers, and appetite sensations will be assessed.
