Summary

This is an exploratory controlled before-after study, which involves 112 participants, of whom 28 are with normal weight and 84 are overweight or obese. Twelve weeks of caloric-restriction dietary intervention will be conducted in the overweight or obese participants. Before and after the 12-week intervention, metabolic health will be characterized by metabolic homeostasis, determined via comprehensive measurements of dynamic postprandial metabolic responses to a standardized mixed macronutrient tolerance test (75 g glucose, 60 g fat, 20 g protein) in a whole-room indirect calorimeter. The objectives of this study are

1. to characterize dynamic metabolic response elicited by acute nutritional and acute exercise challenges,
2. to elucidate biological mechanisms underlying inter-individual heterogeneity in these responses,
3. to predict prospective weight loss over the intervention using heterogeneous metabolic responses to acute challenges

Conditions

  • Homeostasis
  • Metabolism and Nutrition Disorder
  • Healthy
  • Obesity

Interventions

BEHAVIORAL

General lifestyle and nutritional education

Participants will receive general dietary advice, behavior guidance and nutritional and lifestyle education based on dietary guidelines.

BEHAVIORAL

Personalized nutritional and lifestyle weight reduction intervention

Participants will receive personalized dietary advice, behavior guidance and nutritional and lifestyle education by dietitian and physicians. APP-connected wearable devices will be utilized to monitor their dietary intakes, physical activities and sleep conditions and APP-connected scale will be used to monitor their weight changes during interventions.
