Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The main aim of this study is to investigate the effect of energy-restricted low and high-carbohydrate diet combined with exercise training on appetite regulatory hormones, subjective appetite and energy intake in overweight and obese women. In addition, since the macronutrient composition of meals and exercise impacts biomarkers of cardiovascular disease, the impact of these interactions on metabolic risk factors of cardiovascular diseases will also be investigated .

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This will be a block randomised parallel study, with one group of participants undergoing exercise training combined with the consumption of a calorie-restricted high CHO-low FAT diet and another group undergoing exercise training with consumption of a calorie-restricted low CHO-high FAT diet. The interventions will last for 4 weeks. Prior to and after the interventions participants will undergo a 5-hour experimental trial, which will involve body composition measurements by the D2O method, appetite hormones, insulin via blood collection and subjective appetite via a visual analogue scale. During the experimental trials, participants will consume breakfast and ad libitum buffet-style lunch.

Prior to the first experimental trial, participants will be subjected to a screening process followed by a preliminary exercise test in the metabolic research unit at New Lister Building (NLB), Glasgow Royal infirmary (GRI). Participants will also be asked to record their food and drink consumed for 4 days (3 weekdays and 1 weekend) prior to and during the four last days of the intervention. By following this step, individual diets will be designed based on participants preferences with restricted energy intake and different macronutrient compositions. Dietary intake records will allow a comparison of participants' calorie intake before and after the intervention.

During intervention participants will consume either energy-restricted low CHO-high FAT or energy-restricted high CHO-Low FAT diet and exercise (brisk walking) while wearing a heart rate monitor 3 times a week after 5 minutes of warm-up, and 5 minutes The duration of the brisk walking will increase after week one from 30 to 45 minutes and to 60 minutes at week three and four. Participants will be advised to cool down after the brisk walking session. During the intervention, participants will be encouraged to avoid alcohol consumption. In case this was not possible, a maximum amount of two units will be allowed per week.

exercise training combined with the consumption of caloric restricted high CHO-low FAT diet. The interventions will last for four weeks.

Group Type EXPERIMENTAL

caloric restrction high carbohydrate low fat diet with exercise training program

Intervention Type COMBINATION_PRODUCT

Subjects will perform 3 sessions/week of brisk walking for four weeks at a heart rate corresponding to 85-90% of the lactate threshold. The duration of exercise sessions will increase from 30 minutes to 45 minutes in week 2 and from 45 minutes to 60 minutes in weeks 3 and 4.

Experimental diets will be calorie-restricted and provide 70% of estimated daily energy requirements. In the high CHO-low FAT diet, carbohydrates, fat, and protein will provide 60%, 25%, and 15% of individually predicted daily energy intake, respectively. Variety (n=7) of daily menus for calorie-restricted high FAT-low CHO diet will be provided and menus for high CHO-low FAT diet on pasta, rice, oats, fruit, and vegetable.During the intervention, participants will be encouraged to avoid alcohol consumption and only the maximum amount of two units will be allowed per week.

Variety (n=7) of daily menus for calorie-restricted low CHO-high FAT diet will be provided and menus for high FAT-low CHO group will be based on meat, fish, cheese, butter, and nuts.During the intervention, participants will be encouraged to avoid alcohol consumption and only the maximum amount of two units will be allowed per week.
