About unsuspected potential determinants of obesity
Abstract
The positive energy balance underlying obesity is generally attributed to factors exerting a direct measurable impact on energy intake or expenditure. Thus, sedentariness and (or) excess caloric intake represent the "Big Two" factors on which almost all the attention of health professionals is devoted in preventive and therapeutic programs for obesity. However, recent research reveals that other more discrete factors can also promote a positive energy balance and body fat gain. Accordingly, this paper documents the effects of low micronutrient intake, short sleep duration, knowledge-based work, and organochlorine compounds on components of energy balance and body composition. These effects aid in the understanding as to why modernity accentuates the risk of obesity. Furthermore, they also suggest that body fat gain is not only a problem, but also a solution in maintaining body homeostasis, i.e., a state of optimal body functionality, in the context of modernity and globalization.

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
