- Mammals increase daily energy expenditure when consuming a protein-dilute diet.
- Dietary protein dilution leads to enhanced weight-bearing exercise ability in mice.
- Improved movement economy is linked to reduced adiposity and body weight.
- Liver-derived fibroblast growth factor 21 (FGF21) promotes brown adipose tissue thermogenesis.
- Dietary protein dilution-induced thermogenesis balances energy expenditure between active and inactive states.
- FGF21 drives improved movement economy and exercise capability during protein dilution.
