Abstract: OBJECTIVE: To evaluate whether postprandial abnormalities of energy expenditure and/or lipid oxidation are present in healthy, normal-weight subjects with a strong family history of obesity and thus at high risk to become obese. DESIGN: Case-control study. SUBJECTS: A total of 16 young healthy men participated in the study. Eight subjects had both parents overweight (father's and mother's body mass index (BMI) >25 kg/m(2)) and eight had both parents with normal body weight (father's and mother's BMI
