In SummaryIn Summary
Carbohydrate is a primary source of energy in the American diet and is divided into two classes: that which can be metabolized (sugars and starches) and dietary fiber.
Two recommendations to improve health status in the American population are to consume complex carbohydrates to represent about 45% to 65% of the calories, and to add more dietary fiber.

In SummaryIn Summary
Americans consume too much saturated fat, and the recommended change is to reduce this to no more than 10% of the total calories. Trans fat intake should be reduced as much as possible, and most fat intake should come from sources containing polyunsaturated and monounsaturated fatty acids.
The protein requirement of 0.8 g/kg can be met with low-fat selections to minimize fat intake.

In SummaryIn Summary
The BMI uses a simple ratio of weight-to-height squared (kg/m2) to classify individuals as being normal weight, overweight, or obese. However, just like the old height-weight tables, the BMI does not consider the composition of the body weight (i.e., proportion of muscle tissue vs. fat tissue).
Body composition can be measured in terms of total body water (isotope dilution, bioelectric impedance analysis), bone density (photon absorptiometry), lean tissue mass (potassium-40), density (underwater weighing, air displacement plethysmography), and thickness of various tissues (ultrasound, radiography, skinfolds).
Body Composition

In SummaryIn Summary
Body composition assessment can be based on four-component (mineral, water, protein, and fat), three-component (body water, protein+mineral, and fat, or body water+protein, mineral, and fat), or two-component (fat-free mass and fat mass) models. The four-component model is the most accurate.

In SummaryIn Summary
In the two-component system of body composition analysis, the body is divided into fat-free and fat mass, with densities of 1.100 and 0.900, respectively. The estimate of the density of the fat-free mass must account for the differences that exist in various populations (i.e., children and African Americans).
Body Composition
Chapter 18

In SummaryIn Summary Body density is equal to mass ÷ volume. Underwater
weighing is used to determine body volume using the principle of Archimedes: When an object is placed in water, it is buoyed up by a counterforce equal to the water it displaces. One can measure the actual volume of the water displaced, or the loss of weight while underwater. The weight of water is divided by the density of water to yield body volume, which must then be corrected for the residual volume and the volume of gas in the GI tract.
The percent body fat value has an error of about ±2.0% due to the normal biological variation of the fat-free mass.

In SummaryIn Summary
Subcutaneous fat can be “sampled” as skinfold thicknesses, and a sum of skinfolds can be converted to a percent body fat with formulas derived from the relationship of the sum of skinfolds to a body composition standard based on a two-, three-, or four-component models.
The recommended body fatness for males is 10% to 20%, and for females is 15% to 25%. There is concern about obesity and anorexia for those above and below these values, respectively.

from cardiovascular disease and some types of cancer, but being overweight is not. Emphasis should be on maintaining or reducing weight in the overweight individual to decrease the chance of migration to the obese category.
Obesity associated with fat mass in excess of 30 kg is due primarily to an increase in fat cell number, with fat cell hypertrophy being related to smaller degrees of obesity. Those with hyperplasia have a more difficult time losing weight and keeping it off.
Genetic factors account for about 25% of the transmissible variance for fat mass and percent body fat; culture accounts to 30%.

Set Point and ObesitySet Point and Obesity
• Set point theory– Biological set point for body weight much like the set
points for other physiological variables• Physiological set point model
– Biological signals provide input to hypothalamus• Blood glucose, lipid stores, weight on feet
– Food intake is either increased or decreased to maintain body weight
• Cognitive set point model– Cognitive signals about perception of body weight– Influences food intake to maintain body weight

• Little evidence that dietary supplements work• Drugs, if they work, may have side effects
– Fen-phen promoted weight loss but caused:• Pulmonary hypertension• Heart valve abnormalities• Electrocardiographic abnormalities
• Key points– Focus of weight loss programs should be long-term diet
and exercise behaviors– Most drugs are for short-term use only– If all the diet books, pills, and supplements worked,
obesity would not be a problem

In SummaryIn Summary
Investigators have proposed a set-point theory to explain obesity given the tendency for people who diet to return to their former weight. Theories based on weight sensors (ponderostatic), the blood glucose concentration (glucostatic), and the mass of lipid (lipostatic) have been proposed.
A behavioral set-point theory has been proposed that relies on the person making appropriate activity and dietary judgments when body weight, size, or shape does not match up with that person’s ideal.

• Static energy balance– Increase intake of 250 kcals•day–1 would lead to
14-pound weight gain over one year
• Dynamic energy balance– Increase in energy intake results in increased
body weight• Energy expenditure also increases, and weight is
maintained at a new, higher level– Results in weight gain of only 3.5 pounds in a year

In SummaryIn Summary
The dynamic energy balance equation correctly expresses the dynamic nature of changes in energy intake and body weight. An increase in energy intake leads to an increase in body weight; in turn, energy expenditure increases to eventually match the higher energy intake. Body weight is now stable at a new and higher value.

Nutrient BalanceNutrient Balance
• Carbohydrate and protein– Excess intake is oxidized– Body regulates expenditure to match intake– Does not contribute to weight gain
• Fat– Excess intake is not necessarily oxidized– Fat expenditure depends on total energy
expenditure – Contributes to weight gain

The Food QuotientThe Food Quotient
• Food quotient (FQ)– Indicates the mix of CHO and fat in the meal
• 1.00 = 100% CHO• 0.85 = 50% CHO, 50% fat• 0.70 = 100% fat
• Respiratory quotient (RQ)– Indicates the mix of CHO and fat oxidized
• Similar to FQ

Diet and Weight ControlDiet and Weight Control
• Diets high in fat are linked to obesity– Fat grams contain twice as many calories as
carbohydrates– Nutrient balance can most easily be achieved with a
low-fat diet• Calories count and must be considered!• Adherence to the diet is more important than the type of
diet followed• Calories from foods and beverages should be balanced
with calories expended– Gradually decrease caloric intake and increase
physical activity

Physical Activity for Weight ControlPhysical Activity for Weight Control
• To reduce the risk of chronic disease– 30 minutes of moderate-intensity physical
activity on most days of the week
• To manage weight and prevent gradual weight gain– 60 minutes of moderate- to vigorous-intensity
activity on most days of the week
• To sustain weight loss– 60–90 minutes of moderate-intensity physical
activity

In SummaryIn Summary
Diets with a high fat-to-carbohydrate ratio are linked to obesity. Nutrient balance for fat can be most easily achieved with a low-fat diet (high FQ).
Calories do count, and they must be considered in any diet aimed at achieving or maintaining a weight loss goal.

Energy Expenditure and Weight ControlEnergy Expenditure and Weight Control
• Basal metabolic rate (BMR)– Rate of energy expenditure under standardized
conditions• Supine position, immediately after rising, 12–18 hours
following a meal • Similar to resting metabolic rate (RMR)
– Represents 60–75% total energy expenditure• Lower in women, declines with age• Related to fat-free mass
– Reduced in response to reduced caloric intake (dieting or fasting)
• Exercise can maintain BMR

In SummaryIn Summary The BMR represents the largest
fraction of total energy expenditure in sedentary persons. The BMR decreases with age, and women have lower BMR values than men.
The fat-free mass is related to both the gender difference and to the decline in BMR with age. A reduction in caloric intake by dieting or fasting can reduce the BMR, while physical activity is important in maintaining it.

• Thermogenesis– “Heat generation” – Thermic effect of feeding
• Increased energy expenditure following ingestion of meals
• Small part of total energy expenditure (10–15%)• Not predictive of obesity
– Brown adipose tissue• Increases heat production in response to norepinephrine
and thyroid hormones– Energy wasteful systems or futile cycles
• Metabolic cycles (Na+/K+ pump activity)

In SummaryIn Summary
Humans increase appetite over a broad range of energy expenditure to maintain body weight; however, formerly sedentary individuals show a net loss of appetite when they undertake an exercise program.
When weight loss occurs with an exercise and diet program, less lean body mass is lost than when the same weight loss is achieved by diet alone.

In SummaryIn Summary
Moderate-intensity exercise is an appropriate choice for most Americans to achieve health-related and weight-loss goals. Plasma free fatty acids make up a large fraction of the energy supply for that level of physical activity.
Moderate exercise promotes the expenditure of large amounts of fat and calories, consistent with achieving weight-loss and fitness goals.
Vigorous activity is effective in expending calories and achieving fitness, performance, and fat-loss goals.
