In the article titled “Influence of a 10-Day Mimic of Our Ancient Lifestyle on Anthropometrics and Parameters of Metabolism and Inflammation: The “Study of Origin”” [1], Jens Freese was missing from the authors’ list. The corrected authors’ list is shown above.

Also, there was a typographical error in the value of body weight loss. As a result, in the second paragraph of “Anthropometrics and Clinical Chemical Indices” section, the sentence “We found (Table ) that body weight decreased with a median (range) of −3.8 kg (−12.5 to −0.7)” should be changed to “We found (Table 1) that body weight decreased with a median (range) of −3.4 kg (−7.5 to −0.7),” and Table should be corrected as follows:
