Background summary
In western societies the prevalence of overweight and obesity is increasing.
Recent studies show that drinking of 0.5 L water increases energy expenditure.
The underlying mechanism is unknown. Two factors appear to play an important
role: volume and osmolarity of the drink. In this study the role of stretch
receptors and osmoreceptors in the thermogenic response after drinking will be
studied.
Study objective
Aim of the study is to answer the following questions:
What is the influence of drinking different kinds of volumes on energy
expenditure?
What is the influence of drinking solutions with different osmolarities on the
energy expenditure?
Are changes in energy expenditure associated with changes in heart rate and
finger tremor, as an index for activation of the sympathetic nervous system?
Study design
Double-blind, randomised cross-over design.
Intervention

1. 0,5 L water
2. 0,35 L water
3. 0,2 L water
4. 0,5 L 0,9% NaCl
5. 0,5 L 1,5% NaCl
