No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Aim of the study is to compare the origin of ketone bodies: endogenous ketone bodies due to 36 hours fasting or 24 hours of ketogenic diet vs. exogenous ketone bodies as supplements additional to normal diet.

Secondary aim of the study is to validate the new metabolic chambers.

Interventions

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

Beta-Hydroxybutyrate as Ca-Mg-salt, active

24 hour intervention with ketone body supplements additional to a normal diet (isocaloric diet in total) to induce ketosis (exogenous ketone bodies), in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6, after one day of isocaloric diet in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

ketogenic diet (KetoCal® 4:1 Neutral, Nutricia GmbH, Erlangen, Germany), active

24 hour interventions with ketogenic isocaloric diet to induce ketosis (endogenous ketone bodies), in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6, after one day of isocaloric diet in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

fasting, active

36 hours of fasting, in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6, after one day of isocaloric diet in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.6.

DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

fasting, inactive

36 hours of fasting, in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.3, after one day of isocaloric diet in a metabolic chamber at physical activity level of 1.3. The same intervention is reproduced one week later.
