Journal ArticleDOI
Long-term effects of calorie or protein restriction on serum IGF-1 and IGFBP-3 concentration in humans.
Luigi Fontana,Luigi Fontana,Edward P. Weiss,Edward P. Weiss,Dennis T. Villareal,Samuel Klein,John O. Holloszy +6 more
TL;DR: It is demonstrated that, unlike in rodents, long‐term severe CR does not reduce serum IGF‐1 concentration and IGF-1 : IGFBP‐3 ratio in humans, and evidence that protein intake is a key determinant of circulating IGF‐ 1 levels in humans is provided.
Journal ArticleDOI
Improvements in glucose tolerance and insulin action induced by increasing energy expenditure or decreasing energy intake: a randomized controlled trial.
Edward P. Weiss,Susan B. Racette,Dennis T. Villareal,Luigi Fontana,Karen Steger-May,Kenneth B. Schechtman,Samuel Klein,John O. Holloszy +7 more
TL;DR: It does not appear that exercise training-induced weight loss results in greater improvements than those that result from calorie restriction alone, and glucoregulation and circulating factors involved in insulin action in nonobese, healthy, middle-aged men and women.
Journal ArticleDOI
Bone mineral density response to caloric restriction-induced weight loss or exercise-induced weight loss: a randomized controlled trial.
Dennis T. Villareal,Luigi Fontana,Edward P. Weiss,Susan B. Racette,Karen Steger-May,Kenneth B. Schechtman,Samuel Klein,John O. Holloszy +7 more
TL;DR: It is suggested that EX should be an important component of a weight loss program to offset adverse effects of CR on bone, and bone turnover increased in both CR and EX groups.
Journal ArticleDOI
Calorie restriction or exercise: effects on coronary heart disease risk factors. A randomized, controlled trial
Luigi Fontana,Dennis T. Villareal,Edward P. Weiss,Susan B. Racette,Karen Steger-May,Samuel Klein,John O. Holloszy +6 more
TL;DR: Evidence is provided that CR- and EX-induced negative energy balance result in substantial and similar improvements in the major risk factors for CHD in normal-weight and overweight middle-aged adults.
Journal ArticleDOI
One Year of Caloric Restriction in Humans: Feasibility and Effects on Body Composition and Abdominal Adipose Tissue
Susan B. Racette,Edward P. Weiss,Dennis T. Villareal,Hassan Arif,Karen Steger-May,Kenneth B. Schechtman,Luigi Fontana,Luigi Fontana,Samuel Klein,John O. Holloszy +9 more
TL;DR: CR for 1 year was feasible, but the level of CR achieved was less than prescribed, and exercise were equally effective in reducing weight and adiposity.
