Journal ArticleDOI
Reduced Rate of Energy Expenditure as a Risk Factor for Body-Weight Gain
Eric Ravussin,Stephen Lillioja,William C. Knowler,L. Christin,Daniel Freymond,William G H Abbott,Vicky L Boyce,Barbara V. Howard,Clifton Bogardus +8 more
TL;DR: It is concluded that a low rate of energy expenditure may contribute to the aggregation of obesity in families.
Journal ArticleDOI
Deterioration in carbohydrate metabolism and lipoprotein changes induced by modern, high fat diet in Pima Indians and Caucasians.
TL;DR: Since glucose-mediated glucose disposal, beta-cell function, and glucose tolerance deteriorated on the modern diet, it is likely that diet composition affects the prevalence of noninsulin-dependent diabetes mellitus in both Pimas and caucasians.
Journal ArticleDOI
Short-term energy balance: relationship with protein, carbohydrate, and fat balances.
William G H Abbott,B. V. Howard,L. Christin,Daniel Freymond,Stephen Lillioja,Vicky L Boyce,T. E. Anderson,C Bogardus,Eric Ravussin +8 more
TL;DR: Fat, rather than carbohydrate or protein, is almost exclusively used or stored in response to day-to-day fluctuations in energy balance, demonstrating that carbohydrate and protein stores are closely regulated by adjusting oxidation to intake.
Journal ArticleDOI
Energy cost of physical activity on a metabolic ward in relationship to obesity.
TL;DR: It is suggested that heavier subjects on a metabolic ward are less active and expend less energy in physical activity than do lighter subjects.
Journal ArticleDOI
The traditional Pima Indian diet : composition and adaptation for use in a dietary intervention study
Vicky L Boyce,Boyd Swinburn +1 more
TL;DR: The Pima Indian diet of the last century was much higher in carbohydrate and lower in fat compared with the modern-day Pima diet, and any changes that this diabetes-prone population can make toward their traditional diet may help to decrease their incidence of diabetes.
