Description
Learning Objectives:
Discuss clinical studies on overfeeding showing there are differences between obesity prone and obesity resistant subject and this could be due to the variances in individuals in their adaptive thermogenesis.
Explain how in some obese a diminished capacity for dietary thermogenesis plays a role in the pathogenesis of the obese state.
