Clinical trials: Human Energy Expenditure
Human Energy Expenditure
Measurements of Water in Breath and Saliva
This study proposes to demonstrate the feasibility of measuring 2H:1H and 18O:16O in saliva and breath by comparing the natural abundances of 2H:1H and 18O:16O in saliva and urine of un-dosed humans.

Human Energy Expenditure
A New Approach to Measuring Energy Expenditure in Humans
Accurately measuring how many calories a person burns each day is difficult to do. Researchers can do this with a technique called doubly labeled water (DLW).
