Assessment of Acute and Chronic Pharmacological Effects on Energy Expenditure and Macronutrient Oxidation in Humans: Responses to Ephedrine

Table 2

(a) The predicted change in energy expenditure detectable in response to an intervention in a group of 6 subjects

	Consecutive days change in EE kJ	14-day-apart change in EE kJ
Overnight (7 h)	40	38
24 h	190	202

(b) The predicted change in macronutrient oxidation detectable in a group of 6 subjects

	Consecutive days change in kJ			14-day-apart change in kJ
