Interest in the study of BAT has increased over the last 5-10 years in response to the discovery of functional BAT in humans. The BAT is a tissue specialized in regulating energy expenditure by producing heat through the oxidation of fatty acids contained in the multiple lipid droplets of brown adipocytes. This adipose tissue does not play a storage role, but rather an anti-obesogenic one, thanks to its high metabolic and energetic activity.\n\nIn addition to exposure to cold, which is the major physiological inducer of brown adipocytes, it seems that exercise and the intake of \"adrenergic\" foods can activate the TAB and potentially induce a change from white to brown tissue via the production of adrenalin and myokines. Acute and\u002For chronic effects of thermogenic food supplements have been reported on BAT activation and energy metabolism. The most conclusive of these involve the capsinoids found in sweet peppers and chillies. Weight loss also improves BAT activation.\n\nThe BAT has already been identified in children. A decrease in its volume and activity from childhood to adolescence and during puberty has been reported.\n\nThe main objective of this randomized controlled double-blind study is to investigate the effects of capsinoid dietary supplementation on BAT activity in obese adolescents.\n\nOur general working hypothesis is that capsinoid supplementation, combined with dietary management, leads to an increase in BAT activity.",[28,91,92,93],"Exercise","Diet Modification","Dietary Supplement","2026-04-29",{"date":96,"type":38},"2026-04-30",{"date":98,"type":38},"2025-03-03",{"date":100,"type":21},"2027-03",{"name":102,"class":45},"University of Avignon",{"id":104,"slug":105,"hasResults":11,"nctId":106,"briefTitle":107,"officialTitle":108,"acronym":109,"eligibilityCriteria":110,"healthyVolunteers":11,"sex":16,"minAge":54,"maxAge":18,"enrollmentInfo":111,"targetDuration":4,"studyType":22,"phases":113,"briefSummary":114,"conditions":115,"keywords":4,"overallStatus":68,"whyStopped":4,"lastUpdateSubmitDate":94,"lastUpdatePostDateStruct":117,"startDateStruct":119,"completionDateStruct":121,"leadSponsor":123,"locationsCount":124},"100564216","exercise-snacks-for-breaking-the-sedentary-lifestyle-and-improving-the-physical-fitness-of-obese-adolescents-100564216","NCT06626295","Exercise-snacks for Breaking the Sedentary Lifestyle and Improving the Physical Fitness of Obese Adolescents?","Exercise-snacks: an Effective Solution for Breaking the Sedentary Lifestyle and Improving the Physical Fitness of Obese Adolescents?","SNACKEX","Inclusion Criteria:\n\n* Body mass index Z-score corresponding to stage 2 obesity,\n* no weight loss of more than 5% of total body weight in the past 3 months,\n* parental consent\n* minor\\&#39;s acceptance\n\nExclusion Criteria:\n\n* Contraindication to physical activity\n* current participation in a clinical trial",{"count":112,"type":21},48,[88],"The management of a person with obesity involves long-term behavioral changes with a balanced diet in both quantity and quality, along with the adoption of a more active lifestyle: increasing physical activities and reducing sedentary behaviors.
