Ethnic differences in resting metabolic rate, respiratory quotient and body temperature: a comparison of Africans and European Australians

Purpose: A comparison of resting metabolic rate (RMR), respiratory quotient (RQ) and body temperature between adults of African and European descent. Method: Twenty-nine sub-Saharan Africans (SSA; 13 men and 16 women) and thirty-two Australians of European descent (EUR; eight men and 24 women) had R...
