Detailed Description
Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.
Each challenge should be consumed within 15 minutes. After 5 minutes of rest, indirect calorimetry will be postprandially, lasting 30 minutes. Capillary blood shall be obtained at the following times: 15-30-45-60-90 and 120 min after ingestion of food.
Nutrient composition of standardized meal and meal example.
* High carbohydrate challenge: Energy, 479.6 kcal; Carbohydrate, 83.6%; Lipids, 12.4% and Protein, 4.0% (70 g of hot-Cake, 100 g of mango, 270 ml of peach nectar, and 40 g of strawberry jam)
* High lipid challenge: Energy, 1043.4 kcal; Carbohydrate, 4.9%; Lipids, 86.8%, and Protein, 8.3% (60 g of manchego cheese, 25 g of egg, white, dried, 24 g of bacon, 5 ml of oil, 65 g of cream cheese, 70 g of cream, and 16 g of poblano pepper)
* High protein challenge: Energy, 441.3 kcal; Carbohydrate, 1.6%; Lipids, 5.1%, and Protein, 93.3% (2 scoop Isopure Zero Carb, 180 g of chicken breast, 20 g of lettuce and 24 g of ham turkey breast)
Determination of metabolites in dried blood To determine the concentration of metabolites (amino acids and acyl-carnitines), a circle of 3 mm diameter shall be punched out of the filter paper and placed in a 96-well plate. Add 100 µl of the acyl-carnitine and amino acid standards from the NeoBase PerkinElmer kit. Subsequently, follow the manufacturer's instructions for determining metabolites by liquid chromatography coupled to mass spectrometry (LC-MS).
Determination of the respiratory quotient (RQ) To determine the respiratory quotient (RQ= VmaxCO2/ VmaxO2) and lipid and carbohydrate oxidation examinations, the Cardio Coach CO2 Vmax Encore 29 System calorimeter software (Korr, Inc, UT, USA) will be used according to the instructions of the supplier. Examinations are invariably performed in the morning (8:00-9:00 am) in a thermoneutral environment with controlled pressure, humidity, and temperature, with the patient supine but awake. The investigators examine a maximum of two subjects per day. Oxygen consumption and carbon dioxide production were obtained using a canopy and were monitored continuously for 30 minutes. The initial 10 minutes of the measurement are discarded for the calculation to ensure greater data homogeneity. O2 consumption and CO2 production will be recorded continuously for 30 min. VO2 and VCO2 values will be used in the equation proposed by Weir (Energy Expenditure = \[3.941(VO2) + 1.11(VCO2)\] x 1440 min/day), considered as the standard method \[34\]. Additionally, one day before the test, subjects are instructed to fast for 8 hours and not engage in physical activity or consume caffeine the day before the exam. All participants will be asked to eat the same dinner the night before each test. Dinner provides 15% of the daily energy intake; 20 g of protein, 7 g of lipids, and 34 g of carbohydrates)
