Beyond BMI: Genome‐Wide Associations of Visceral Fat, Fat Mass, and Fat‐Free Mass in Eastern Asian Populations

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective BMI is widely used to define obesity and may not capture heterogeneity in body fat distribution. Genetic studies of obesity have largely focused on BMI but not visceral fat and fat‐free mass, which is particularly limited in East Asian populations.

Weight Loss and Physical Activity Reduces Perceived Physical Fatigability Among Older Adults With Obesity

open access: yesObesity, EarlyView.
ABSTRACT Objective This study aimed to evaluate the impact of three lifestyle interventions on perceived physical fatigability. Methods Concurrent with a dietary weight loss program (caloric deficit ~400 kcal/day, weekly dietitian support), older adults with obesity (N = 183) were randomized to three groups: aerobic exercise (150–200 min/week of ...

Hunting motivations, behaviour and forest access: Characterising wildlife hunting practices in a multi‐ethnic, forested landscape of Brunei Darussalam, Southeast Asia

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Unsustainable hunting practices can alter population dynamics, driving biodiversity declines, which leads to ‘empty forests’. Understanding hunting behaviour, including motivations for hunting and relationships with market drivers, and access to hunting grounds are important to develop affirmative policies to stem biodiversity loss.

More than proteins for empty stomachs: Wild meat in the BaTonga food system

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Our paper highlights the limitations of the framework used by many conservation‐focused programmes that incorporate food security objectives. This framework encourages the substitution of wild proteins with domestic proteins by promoting animal farming in communities located near conservation areas.

The magnitude and economic replacement value of wild meat obtained from ‘recreational’ big game hunting in the United States

open access: yesPeople and Nature, EarlyView.
Abstract Meat production has notable benefits for food security, nutrition and various production economies, but has elicited substantial negative environmental impacts. Recreational hunting provides an alternative to agricultural meat production for over 24 million hunters worldwide.
