Human metabolic chambers reveal a coordinated metabolic-physiologic response to nutrition.

ABSTRACT: Human studies linking metabolism with organism-wide physiologic function have been challenged by confounding, adherence, and precisionHere, we united physiologic and molecular phenotypes of metabolism during controlled dietary intervention to understand integrated metabolic-physiologic responses to nutrition. In an inpatient study of individuals who underwent serial 24-hour metabolic chamber experiments (indirect calorimetry) and metabolite profiling, we mapped a human metabolome onto substrate oxidation rates and energy expenditure across up to 7 dietary conditions (energy balance, fasting, multiple 200% caloric excess overfeeding of varying fat, protein, and carbohydrate composition). Diets exhibiting greater fat oxidation (e.g., fasting, high-fat) were associated with changes in metabol
