Metabolic PhenoCages (TSE systems) were used to measure several metabolic parameters, whilst animals remained on their diet and TRF conditions. Animals were individually housed in these cages. After a day of acclimatization to this new environment, the parameters for food intake, locomotor activity, respiratory exchange ratio (RER) and heat production were measured for three consecutive days (72 hours).
