Summary

This study aims to improve how we measure metabolism—the rate your body burns calories—by looking at body shape and composition. Researchers will compare healthy volunteers and people with conditions like diabetes, obesity, or cancer. Participants spend two days in the hospital for tests like breath analysis, body scans, and blood samples. No treatment is given; the goal is simply to learn more.
