NCT ID NCT02161926
First seen Jun 27, 2026 · Last updated Jun 27, 2026
Summary
This study looked at how a 20% calorie-restricted diet changes metabolism in obese men of two age groups: 30-40 and 60-70 years old. Researchers measured fat breakdown at rest and during exercise, along with genetic markers in muscle and fat tissue. The goal was to understand if older men respond differently to dieting than younger men.
