TABLE 4.

Caloric intake, physical activity, energy expenditure, and RER in time‐of‐day‐restricted control and high fat diet fed mice

	Control diet Ad libitum	High fat diet Ad libitum
24‐h cumulative caloric intake (kcal/24‐h)	13.4 ± 0.4	13.9 ± 0.9
24‐h cumulative physical activity (beam breaks; AU)	36 345 ± 2131	28 252 ± 1422*
24‐h average energy expenditure (kcals/h)	0.352 ± 0.019	0.429 ± 0.028*
24‐h average respiratory exchange ratio	0.944 ± 0.006	0.836 ± 0.003*

Caloric intake, physical activity, energy expenditure, and RER were monitored continuously using a CLAMS. Data are reported as mean ± SEM for 20‐21 mice per experimental group.

^* P < .05 for pair wise comparison between dietary groups.
