Study Summary

Background: \- Researchers who study health and nutrition are interested in developing more accurate methods of determining what people eat from day to day and how it affects their general health. In particular, better methods are needed to determine if people are accurately remembering what they ate. One possible method involves the use of biomarkers, or indicators in urine, blood, saliva, fat, and hair, which are related to the intake of a particular food in a consistent way. One set of biomarkers in blood samples and hair may be used to determine the relative amount of meat, fish, and soda (corn/sugar cane) in a person s diet. However, more research is needed to study the effectiveness of using these biomarkers to accurately track dietary intake. Objectives: \- To validate the use of biomarkers as representative of specific dietary intake patterns (meat/fish/soda). Eligibility: \- Healthy, nondiabetic men between 18 and 65 years of age. Design: * This study involves an initial screening visit and a 12-13 week inpatient dietary study period. * Participants will be screened with a medical history and physical examination, as well as blood and urine samples and a glucose tolerance test to exclude individuals who have diabetes. * After 3 days of a standard weight-maintaining diet, participants will have a glucose tolerance test and a body fat scan; provide hair, blood, and fat tissue samples; and complete questionnaires and performance tests. * Participants will spend one day in a metabolic chamber to measure their energy expenditure and general metabolism. * Participants will then be randomized into one of eight carefully designed diets for 12 weeks. The diets will differ in the amount of meat, fish, and soda, including one diet where none of the three biomarker-related foods will be permitted. Blood samples will be collected throughout the study diet period. * At the end of the 12-week study diet period, participants will provide additional hair, blood, and
