[HTML][HTML] Longitudinal assessment of energy balance in well-nourished, pregnant women
LE Kopp-Hoolihan, MD van Loan, WW Wong… - The American journal of …, 1999 - Elsevier
Background Clinicians often recommend an additional energy intake of 1250 kJ/d to their
pregnant patients. Previous studies have shown considerable variation in the metabolic
response to pregnancy and thus in the additional energy required to support a pregnancy.
Objective The purpose of this study was to assess how well-nourished women meet the
energy demands of pregnancy and to identify factors that predict an individual's metabolic
response. Design Resting metabolic rate (RMR), diet-induced thermogenesis (DIT), total …
