Official title: Feasibility Study of Integrating IC Technology With the WatchWT Comprehensive Weight Reduction Program.

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the feasibility of using indirect calorimetry (IC) within a comprehensive weight reduction program. Will individuals that receive a personalized nutrition program, at baseline, from IC technology respond better to treatment compared to individuals receiving IC technology at three months.

Being tested
Individualized IC treatment, Usual Care
Medical subject headings
Obesity, Hypertension

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Individualized IC treatmentBehavioural

    Also called MedGem indirect Calorimeter

    Individuals will receive IC measurement at baseline and three months. Nutrition and physical activity plan will be developed and adjusted from measured RMR and lifestyle.

  • Usual CareBehavioural

    Also called MedGem indirect Calorimeter

    Individuals will receive standard dietary plan. Women will receive 1200 Kcal/day and men will receive 1600 Kcal/day. Individuals will receive RMR measurement at three months. RMR information will be used to help improve eating behavior.
