Striking a balance: Orexigenic and energy‐consuming effects of energy expenditure on body weight

Partitioning the effects of EE on body weight between orexigenic and energy-consuming pathways is likely to be individually subtle and influenced by a range of biological (e.g., age, sex, body composition, genetics) and behavioral factors (e.g., diet selection, physical activity). [...]the "net...

Description
Summary:Partitioning the effects of EE on body weight between orexigenic and energy-consuming pathways is likely to be individually subtle and influenced by a range of biological (e.g., age, sex, body composition, genetics) and behavioral factors (e.g., diet selection, physical activity). [...]the "net effect" of the orexigenic and energy-consuming effects reported by Piaggi et al. favored a negative EB, but body weight increased over the follow-up period (3.4 [7.5] kg over ~1.7 years). Importantly, food choice is not deeply rooted in homeostatic principles but is embodied in cultural and social issues. [...]it is important to recognize that inappropriate food intake and overconsumption are much more than the result of biological dysregulation.O CONFLICT OF INTEREST The authors declared no conflict of interest.
