Obesity
Beige Fat, Energy, and the Natriuretic Peptide System
Obese individuals experience an increased risk of cardiovascular and metabolic diseases. Evidence from genetic studies indicate that the natriuretic peptide (NP) system may protect against these diseases.

Metabolic Effects of Natriuretic Peptide Hormones
Accumulating evidence suggests that the natriuretic peptide (NP) hormonal system has important effects on metabolism. However, more information is needed to better understand the effects of NPs on metabolism in humans.

CALERIE: Comprehensive Assessment of Long-Term Effects of Reducing Intake of Energy
The purpose of this study is to test the hypothesis that two years of sustained 25% caloric restriction (CR) in men age 21-50 (inclusive) and women age 21-47 (inclusive) will slow aging and protect against age-related disease…
