Prediction of Non-Resting Energy Expenditure using Accelerometry
… female, 8 male) who recently participated in a controlled feeding study comprised the study sample. Total energy requirements were assessed from the controlled feeding period in which weight stability was achieved using the intake-balance method. Resting energy expenditure was assessed using the …

Establishing Urinary Biomarkers as Objective Indicators of Dietary Intake In Adolescents
… to reflect dietary intake, but to date, no controlled feeding study has been conducted in adolescents. Using a controlled feeding design, the current study aims to evaluate the validity of urinary sucrose, fructose, sodium, and nitrogen as objective indicators of dietary intake. It is …

Effect of dietary zinc and copper on plasma zinc, copper, total cholesterol in young adult males
An eight week controlled feeding study was conducted to determine the effects of dietary zinc and copper on plasma zinc, copper, total cholesterol (TC), and high density lipoprotein cholesterol (HDL-C) levels in young adult males receiving two levels of zinc. Source of dietary calcium was also …

Feeding facilitation, the hidden interaction in mammalian herbivore assemblages?: a case-study on rabbits (Oryctolagus cuniculus L.) and large grazers
This thesis focuses on the positive interaction ‘feeding facilitation’ which is predicted to occur in assemblages of large and small(er) herbivore species. The main hypothesis of the research is that introduced large herbivores facilitate rabbits (medium-sized herbivores) by modification of the …

Effect of calcium level and source on plasma total and lipoprotein cholesterol in men under controlled dietary conditions
… level of calcium intake over an eight week controlled feeding period. Three diet treatments were examined: 1) high dietary calcium mainly from dairy sources (1600-1800 mg/day), 2) high dietary calcium supplied by a CaCO₃ supplement (1600-1800 mg/day), and 3) normal dietary calcium intake …

Energy Reserves in Native Freshwater Mussels (Bivalvia:Unionidae) with and without Attached Zebra Mussels: Effects of Food Deprivation
… 1) how zebra mussel infestation affects unionid feeding and body condition, 2) how starvation in quarantine affects body condition of unionids, and 3) what feeding regime maintain unionid condition in quarantine. The effects of zebra mussel infestation on two mussel species were evaluated through …

A comparison of the influence of barn-cured and field-cured alfalfa hay on milk production
A controlled feeding experiment was conducted to compare the influence of barn-cured and field-cured alfalfa hay out from the same field on milk production and liveweight of dairy cows. Twelve Holstein cows were used in this trial. The double-reversal feeding method was followed. Grain was fed at …

Using Recovery Biomarkers to Evaluate Dietary Compliance in Young Adults Provided Controlled Diets High in Ultra-Processed Foods and Free from Ultra-Processed Foods
… in a larger study of young adults consuming controlled diets high in UPFs versus controlled diets free from UPFs. Since participants were free-living while following controlled diets, accurately assessing dietary compliance was essential. Objective dietary assessment methods, such as urinary …
