Sigma Nutrition Radio
Evolutionary Biology of Energy Balance
Delving into the deep evolutionary lineage of humans as hunter-gatherers, this chapter discusses the surprising results of measuring daily energy expenditure in a hunter-gatherer population and the development of the constrained total energy expenditure model. It explores the impact of increased physical activity on total energy expenditure, metabolic adaptations to high activity levels, and the complexity of metabolic adjustments across species and populations.
