Energy Intake and Activity
Description:... Abstract: A collection of 18 authorative review papers, taken from a series of related workshops, addresses various aspects of the association of energy intake with physical activity. The papers are organized among 5 general topic areas, including energy balance studies concerning the association of inappropriate energy intakes with adaptation and reproductive competence of populations; methodological issues concerning energy balance studies and data in both adults and children; the effects of reduced energy intake on agricultural productivity, activity and metabolism, motor development, and sleep; and microeconomic and other consequences and policy implications of reduced activity and energy intake deficiencies.
