A Randomized Study of the Effects of Additional Fruit and Nuts Consumption on Hepatic Fat Content, Cardiovascular Risk Factors and Basal Metabolic Rate
Fig 2
Individual changes of basal metabolic rate in the groups randomized to consume extra fruit or extra nuts.
The basal metabolic rate measured by indirect calorimetry increased in the nut group only (fruit group: from 1787 ± 278 kcal/24h to 1845 ± 240 kcal/24h, p = 0.26, nut group: from 1931 ± 221 kcal/24h to 2031 ± 294 kcal/24h, p = 0.028).
