DIT: Personalizing Metabolism for Weight Management
Received Date: Jun 02, 2025 / Published Date: Jun 30, 2025
Abstract
Diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT) is the energy expenditure for food processing, crucial for weight management [1]. Brown adipose tissue (BAT) and thyroid hormones are key physiological modulators of this process, burning calories for heat [2, 5, 8]. Macronutrient composition, especially protein, significantly influences DIT, as does regular exercise [3, 4]. Inter-individual variability, driven by genetics and gut microbiota, necessitates personalized approaches to metabolic health and obesity [6, 7]. Capsaicin can also boost DIT [9]. Accurate measurement using indirect calorimetry remains fundamental for research and clinical insights into this vital metabolic component [10].
