Who can join

Adults 18 to 40, male only, with Energy Supply; Deficiency or Carbohydrate Availability. Patients with the condition only — healthy volunteers not accepted.

Sponsor's own description

Using a randomised crossover design, nine weight-stable men, aged 18 - 40 years old, will be recruited via convenience sampling from the staff and student body of LJMU and local area. Participants will be asked to follow two 4-day (\~96 hours) periods of tightly controlled exercise energy expenditure (15 kcal/kg FFM/day \[cycling\]) and dietary intake (60 kcal/kg FFM/day) to compare a state of 'normal' energy availability (or energy balance; equivalent to 45 kcal/kg FFM/day) with concomitant 1: normal carbohydrate availability ('Normal'; \~60% of dietary intake from carbohydrate) and 2: low carbohydrate availability ('LCHF', \~1.5 g/kg carbohydrate per day, \~70 - 80% dietary intake from fat). This approximates the amount of carbohydrate consumed by an individual in a state of LEA through consuming 10 kcal/kg FFM/day with 50% of intake from carbohydrate, or \~1.5 g/kg/day of carbohydrate. In both experimental phases we will measure endocrine, metabolic and physiological parameters.
