Research Abstract |
We improved the algorithm to evaluate energy expenditure and developed a new method for evaluation of diet-induced thermogenesis using a whole-body indirect human calorimeter. In addition, we examined the relationship between energy metabolism and body composition, dietary habits, and exercise. Furthermore, using the tri-axial accelerometer which can evaluate type and intensity of physical activity, we demonstrated that total steps reflect amount of moderate-to-vigorous physical activity in children and adults although non-locomotive activity substantially contributes also, and that relative contribution of non-locomotive activities to total physical activity in free-living conditions is different between occupations.
