Study design. Capsules were ingested prior to 18:00 the night before the experiment. Subjects were instructed to take their evening meal no later than 12 h before their scheduled test the following morning to ensure all subjects were fasted for ~12 h. Subjects were given instructions on when to go to bed and to wake up the next morning and were advised to take motorized/public transport to the laboratory. Following a rest period, baseline resting energy expenditure (REE) measurements were taken for 30 min, followed by a series of low-intensity exercise tests, and followed by a 600 kcal mixed meal.
