Summary
This study looks at how changing the amount of protein, fat, carbs, and total calories in your diet affects the energy your body uses to digest food. Healthy adults aged 18 to 60 will stay in a clinic for about 35 days, eating only provided meals and spending 9 separate 24-hour periods in a sealed room that measures their oxygen and carbon dioxide levels. The goal is to better understand diet-induced thermogenesis, or how much energy your body burns to process what you eat.
