Summary

There is evidence to suggest that responsiveness to exercise training programmes can be expected to be influenced by changes in resting fat oxidation, an important factor in the aetiology of obesity. Our previous work has shown that oral supplementation with inulin propionate ester (IPE) reduces intra-abdominal fat and prevents weight gain and that oral propionate intake enhances resting fat oxidation. The effects of IPE combined with exercise training on resting fat oxidation and body fatness are unknown. The aim of this study was to investigate the impact of 4-weeks IPE supplementation, in combination with a moderate intensity exercise training programme, on whole body fat oxidation and on plasma GLP-1 and PYY.
