A Commercially Available Thermogenic Dietary Supplement Increases Resting Metabolic Rate in Physically Active Males: A Randomized, Double-Blind, Placebo-Controlled Investigation.
Journal of Dietary Supplements 2018 October 6
Males seeking to improve body composition may ingest thermogenic dietary supplements with the goal of elevating resting metabolic rate. The purpose of this study was to examine the effects of a commercially available dietary supplement (containing ingredients that promote thermogenesis) on resting metabolic rate (RMR) in a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled cross-over study. Ten healthy, physically active males (age: 26.5 ± 6.4 years; height: 177.6 ± 7.2 cm; body weight: 80.5 ± 10.8 kg) underwent two testing sessions separated by approximately 7 days. Following baseline assessments of RMR, heart rate (HR), and blood pressure (BP), each participant ingested a thermogenic dietary supplement or a placebo. Assessments were repeated at 60, 120, and 180 minutes postingestion. Approximately 1 week later, participants ingested the alternative supplement and the assessments were repeated. Post hoc analyses revealed that the dietary supplement treatment demonstrated significant elevations in RMR during the postingestion period (p < 0.05) from 1,859 ± 266 kcal to 2,027 ± 288 kcal (increase of 9%) to 2,072 ± 292 kcal (increase of 11.5%) and to 2,040 ± 271 kcal (increase of 9.7%) at 60, 120, and 180 minutes postingestion, respectfully. No significant elevations were observed in the placebo treatment at any time point. HR and BP measures were within normal clinical values throughout the intervention.
