Because such labo -sa ing de ices a e habi ually used in all a luen socie ies, hei con ibu ion o popula ion ene gy balance in high-income coun ies has been conside ed subs an i e.15 Domes ic mechaniza ion has also con ibu ed o inc eased seden a iness, as ime spen in house wo k has been eplaced by seden a y ac i i ies such as wa ching ele ision and use o o he sc een based media.16 Many s udies ha e impli- ca ed seden a y beha io , including passi e anspo a ion, wi h weigh gain.17–19 On he o he hand, pa icipa ion in leisu e- ime physical ac i i y (LTPA) has p og essi ely inc eased o e he yea s;20 howe e , i appea s ha on a secula basis, his has no been enough o o se inc eased seden a y beha io , as o al PA is declining apidly ac oss he globe.12 3. Objec i e measu emen s o ene gy expendi u e con lic he idea ha obesi y epidemic is a ibu able o educ ions in daily ene gy expendi u e Based on he e idence p esen ed abo e, i seems in ui i e ha he ise in bodyweigh and obesi y is a ibu able o dec eases in daily ene gy expendi u e. Howe e , on close sc u- iny his idea seems highly imp obable, and he e is ai amoun o e idence o suppo ha con en ion. Fi s , he “labo -sa ing” cul u e has no changed subs an ially since he 1960s and 1970s, whe eas he obesi y p e alence s a ed o inc ease d a- ma ically only a ound he 1980s. Second, doubly-labeled wa e s udies (which p o ide he op imal me hod o measu e ene gy expendi u e in ee-li ing indi iduals) show ha daily ene gy expendi u e has no declined be ween 1980 and 2005 in Eu ope o No h Ame ica.21 Simila ly, ecen me a-analyses o nea ly 100 doubly-labeled wa e s udies indica ed ha popula ions in indus ialized coun ies do no ha e lowe a e o daily ene gy expendi u e compa ed wi h popula ions in de eloping coun ies.22 Clea ly, obese indi iduals ha e highe habi ual ene gy expendi u e compa ed wi h no mal weigh people23 (due o hei la ge body size and es ing me abolic a es). Leibel e al.24 demons a ed ha 10% weigh gain inc eases daily ene gy expendi u e om 370 o 530 kcal, depending on he baseline weigh . The ob ious implica ion o his is ha he a e o ene gy in ake mus also inc ease acco dingly, o he wise weigh loss will ensue. Consis en wi h his no ion, Swinbu n e al.25 examined U.S. nu i ional su eillance da a and showed ha he es ima ed daily ene gy in ake in adul s has inc eased on a e age by 500 kcal in he US be ween 1970s and 2000s. Simila indings ha e also been epo ed om se e al Eu opean coun ies.26,27 Howe e , a mo e ecen examina ion by A che e al.28 sug- ges ed ha once he measu es o die a y in ake in Na ional Heal h and Nu i ion Examina ion Su ey (NHANES) we e modi ied, no subs an ial di e ence in ene gy in ake exis ed. Ene gy in ake canno be quan i ied as p ecisely as ene gy expendi u e. The eason why daily ene gy in ake is no ably smalle han simul aneously es ima ed ene gy expendi u e28,29 may be explained by selec i e mis epo ing (o e o unde ) and ecall bias, which a e well-known ac o s ha con ound s udies in es iga ing ene gy in ake in humans.30 Popula ion ene gy in ake can also be assessed om he na ional ood a ailabili y da a. These da a show ha daily ene gy in ake in he US inc eased slowly un il he ea ly 1980s, and hen s a ed o inc eased apidly.31 Mo eo e , a ecen global analysis con- cluded ha inc eases in ood-ene gy supplies a e su icien o explain inc eases in a e age popula ion body weigh , pa icu- la ly in high-income coun ies.32 Thus, i seems unlikely ha dec emen s in daily ene gy expendi u e a e d i ing he ongoing obesi y epidemic. 4.

Wiklund exe cise has no ole in weigh managemen and ene gy balance. One heo y holds ha ene gy balance may be easie o achie e when ene gy lux is high. This concep was o iginally de eloped by Maye e al.33 in he 1950s, and has subsequen ly been desc ibed by Blundell and King34 and Hill e al.35 Acco ding o his heo y, a h eshold o PA exis s abo e which people a e in he so called “ egula ed zone” o ene gy balance. Those who a e in he egula ed zone a e able o mee high ene gy expendi u e needs wi h ene gy in ake, hus main aining body weigh . Howe e , hose who a e below he PA h eshold ha e lowe ene gy expendi u e, and hus a e in he “un egula ed zone” wi hou he ma ching dec emen s in ene gy in ake. In o he wo ds, his heo y sugges s ha appe i e may no be app op i- a ely egula ed a low le els o PA. This was ecen ly demon- s a ed by Shook e al.;36 hey examined he ela ion be ween ene gy in ake, PA, appe i e, and weigh gain du ing a 1-yea ollow-up, and epo ed ha indi iduals wi h low PA had highe le els o c a ings o oods compa ed wi h hose who had high le els o PA. Fu he mo e, he au ho s no ed ha a h eshold o achie ing ene gy balance occu ed a an ac i i y le el co e- sponding o 7116 s eps pe day. Thus, i may be ha inc ease in seden a iness in he cou se o he yea s has allowed much s eepe ajec o y in popula ion weigh gain han wha would ha e been o he wise. Volun a y exe cise is he mos impo an disc e iona y com- ponen o o al daily ene gy expendi u e, and hus has he po en- ial o a ec ene gy balance. This has been illus a ed in a numbe o longi udinal s udies. Fo example, in a p ospec i e s udy wi h 20 yea s o ollow-up, Hankinson e al.37 showed ha main aining high le el o PA mi iga es weigh gain signi ican ly, pa icula ly in women. In ha s udy, ac i e indi iduals gained less weigh du ing he ollowed pe iod compa ed wi h hose who we e consis en ly inac i e. Simila indings ha e been epo ed om he Finnish Twin Coho , which can be consid- e ed as a na u al expe imen al app oach o in es iga e he ole o PA and genes o o he amilial ac o s on u u e mo bidi y.38 Twins who ha e been consis en ly disco dan LTPA o o e 30 yea s di e signi ican ly om each o he in e ms o body weigh and body composi ion; physically ac i e co- wins ha e signi ican ly lowe body weigh ,39 BMI,40 and a pe cen , and hey ha e much less (50%) isce al and hepa ic a 41 compa ed wi h hei inac i e co- win. This e idence clea ly shows ha pe sis en ly highe PA le el is associa ed wi h dec eased a e o weigh gain e en a e con olling o gene ic liabili y and childhood en i onmen . The e is also a weal h o e idence om con olled ials ha exe cise (o PA) ca ied ou o e long pe iods o ime can gene a e ene gy de ici and he eby induce weigh loss.42–44 Se ies o e iews,45,46 including a Coch ane Re iew47 (which is conside ed as he golden s anda d in assess- ing e idence), indica e ha exe cise induces weigh loss, and ha he weigh loss is e en g ea e when coupled wi h ene gy es ic ion. Thus, bo h die and exe cise a e impo an compo- nen s in he p og ams in ended o weigh loss. Howe e , he majo i y o he weigh loss p og ams seem o ail in he long- e m as people o en egain weigh .48 Consequen ly, a gene al pe cep ion, pa icula ly among he layman, is ha only e y ew succeed in long- e m main enance o weigh loss. Howe e , long- e m weigh loss main enance is a ques ion o beha io al adhe ence.

Conclusion The inc ease in obesi y epidemic is occu ing agains he backg ound o con inuous decline in he ene gy expendi u e equi ed o daily li ing. Howe e , he idea ha obesi y is inc easing because o consis en decline in daily ene gy expen- di u e is no suppo ed ei he by objec i e measu es o ene gy expendi u e o physiological heo y o weigh gain.

I may be ha PA has he abili y o egula e ood in ake, bu in he con empo- a y en i onmen ha is conduci e o seden a y beha io , his egula o y mechanism has gone as ay.
