Does Intermittent Energy Restriction Plus Mediterranean Diet Reduce Visceral Adipose Tissue and Minimize Adaptive Responses of Energy Restriction? A Randomized Pilot Study (P21-016-19)

摘要

ObjectivesTest if an intermittent energy restriction with a Mediterranean diet (IER + MED) preferentially promotes loss of visceral adipose tissue (VAT) over subcutaneous adipose tissue (SAT), with minimal changes to resting energy expenditure (REE) and physical activity level (PAL), compared to an active control, the Dietary Approaches to Stop Hypertension (DASH) diet, in an East Asian adult population.
