Abstract

Since 1980, the global prevalence of obesity has doubled 1. In 2015, overweight and obesity accounted for 4 million deaths worldwide, including 3.3 million from cardiovascular diseases and Type 2 Diabetes (T2D) 1. Restricting energy intake by reducing food consumption, increasing satiety and/or fat malabsorption, is the chief weight-loss mechanism of most medical and surgical treatments of obesity and has profound anti-diabetic effects 2-5. Increasing exercise- and non-exercise activity-related thermogenesis is the other cornerstone of obesity and T2D management. Simultaneously targeting multiple mechanisms of energy homeostasis is advantageous for the treatment of obesity 6,7. Targeting meal by meal energy balance has produced a mean 30% decrease of energy intake 6,7. This lower intake might be useful to current treatments for obesity, T2D as well as to suppress overall inflammation and associated diseases
