Which of the following is considered as the Gold standard method for the assessment of energy expenditure ?
Doubly Labelled Water
Doubly Labelled Water option is correct.
Total energy expenditure in free-living subjects is best measured by methods that capture all components of daily activity without restricting behaviour. The Doubly Labelled Water (DLW) method uses stable isotopes \(^{2}\!H\) and \(^{18}\!O\); the difference in their elimination rates measures CO2 production over 1–2 weeks and hence energy expenditure with high accuracy.
DLW is recognised as the gold standard for measuring free-living energy expenditure. The Douglas bag measures short-term indirect calorimetry, the whole-body chamber gives excellent laboratory data but confines the subject, and DEXA measures body composition — none reproduces DLW's combination of accuracy and free-living validity.
