NCT ID: NCT06327464 Not yet recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Exogenous Ketones and Appetite

Start date: March 15, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

People with obesity have different appetitive responses to stimuli compared to people without obesity. For example, people with obesity have a blunted postprandial ghrelin ('hunger' hormone) response, lower glucagon-like peptide 1 (GLP-1) and peptide-YY (PYY; associated with satiety) compared to people without obesity. Given the favorable effects of exogenous ketone esters on appetite previously observed in healthy adults of normal body weight, it is possible that these supplements can alter appetite hormones in a manner that may closer match that observed in people without obesity. To explore this research question, we will conduct a randomized single-blind cross over study to characterize appetite and dietary intake after ingestion of an exogenous ketone supplement within adults with obesity (compared a control condition without exogenous ketones) and compared to adults without obesity. We will also explore differences in postprandial energy expenditure and fuel utilization. Twenty-two healthy young- and middle-aged adults will be included (up to n=26 enrolled). In addition to a baseline visit to measure body composition, participants will undergo two 4.5-hour study visits, one of which will include a ketone ester supplement and one will have a placebo. Participants will be given a 1-day run-in diet prior to each study day to support energy balance. On each study day visit, participants will undergo a resting metabolic rate test (indirect calorimetry) followed by a fasting appetite rating and blood sample collection. Participants will then be provided with a standard breakfast meal (one with the ketone supplement and one with placebo). Appetite ratings and blood sample collection will be repeated 60, 120, and 180 minutes after the meal. Indirect calorimetry will be completed after the 30, 90, and 150 minute assessments. After the 180-minute timepoint, participants will be provided with a buffet-like lunch meal with instructions to eat as much or as little as they would like to determine ad libitum dietary intake at a single meal. To assess free-living ad libitum dietary intake, participants will receive 1.5 days of food boxes tailored to their preferences, with uneaten food returned at the end of the 1.5-day period. This study will be the first to assess the impact of exogenous ketones on appetite in obesity and would help inform future weight loss intervention trials.

NCT ID: NCT06089993 Completed - Exercise Clinical Trials

Impact of Acute Resistance Exercise on Taste Perception and Appetite Response to Plant Protein in Resistance Trained Adults

Start date: August 8, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Some evidence suggests that taste perception might be modulated by physical exercise, with differences observed after aerobic exercise (DOI:10.1093/chemse/23.4.417) and with habitual exercise (DOI:10.3390/nu11010155). However, the effects of resistance exercise on taste perception has not been studied. This knowledge is important as it may impact the acceptability of foods consumed after exercise. While plant-protein supplement powders are gaining increased popularity, their palatability and, thereby, acceptability may be a shortcoming. This randomised crossover trial aims to investigate (1) the taste perception and acceptability of plant protein supplement powders and (2) whether resistance exercise modulates taste perception and appetite responses to plant protein.

NCT ID: NCT06015867 Recruiting - Appetite Clinical Trials

Effect of Sourdough Bread Consumption on Postprandial Responses, Appetite Regulation and Energy Intake

SPAR
Start date: January 1, 2024
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

During this project the effect of yeast bread and sourdough breads consumption on satiety, energy intake at subsequent meal and postprandial metabolic responses, will be investigated.

NCT ID: NCT05671965 Active, not recruiting - Appetite Clinical Trials

Effects of Oral Xylitol on Subsequent Energy Intake

Start date: January 27, 2023
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of xylitol (given as pre-load), compared to sucrose, Ace-K, and water on energy intake during a subsequent ad libitum test meal in healthy participants. Furthermore, the release of GI hormones, glycemic control, appetite-related sensations, GI tolerance, sweetness and liking in response to the pre-loads will be investigated.

NCT ID: NCT05534152 Completed - Appetite Clinical Trials

Effect of Sumac on Appetite and Food Intake

Start date: November 1, 2018
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Sumac, is a spice that is widely used in Turkish, Iranian and Middle Eastern foods. In these regions, the fruit of sumac is used for seasoning or flavouring, as an appetizer and for souring food. This spice has also been used in herbal folk medicine to relieve certain conditions including bowel disorders, anorexia and indigestion. In addition, many studies have shown that sumac contains a high level of antioxidant activity and polyphenol content that may benefit certain diseases such as cancer and diabetes. The aim of this study was to assess the level of the appetite and food intake among young adults in comparison with free living older adults following the consumption of sumac. This was achieved by assessing the amount of food intake during a lunch course and the impact on food intake for the subsequent 12 hours.

NCT ID: NCT05443347 Recruiting - Obesity Clinical Trials

Activity, Adiposity, and Appetite in Adolescents 2 Intervention

AAAA2 INT
Start date: September 14, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The objective of the study is to quantify the relationship between physical activity, metabolic function, and appetite in adolescents. To do this we will test our working hypothesis that high levels of regular moderate-to-vigorous physical activity (MVPA), as opposed to body weight status, results in a metabolic phenotype consisting of enhanced metabolic function and proper regulation of appetite. We will randomly assigning sedentary overweight/obese adolescents (N=44) to either a control or structured-exercise group for three months.

NCT ID: NCT05408390 Completed - Eating Behavior Clinical Trials

Effects of Energy and Physical Density Manipulation on Appetite

Start date: July 5, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

As individuals tend to eat a constant weight or volume of food, manipulating physical and energy densities generally results in changes in energy intake without affecting subjective appetite sensations. However, relatively few studies have directly studied the interaction between physical and energy density manipulation. This study will determine the effects of foods that systematically vary in physical and energy density on ad libitum energy intake and subjective appetite ratings. Secondary outcomes will include gastrointestinal discomfort, fatigue and acceptability.

NCT ID: NCT05279183 Completed - Appetite Clinical Trials

Assessment of Reward Responses to Erythritol Using Flavor Preference Learning

Start date: March 17, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

The aim of this project is to investigate the reward responses to oral erythritol compared to sucrose and sucralose using flavor preference learning in healthy participants. In addition, the release of GI hormones, glycemic control, appetite-related sensations, and emotional state in response to erythritol will be investigated.

NCT ID: NCT05213559 Completed - Appetite Clinical Trials

Metabolic Responses After 12-week Hypocaloric Diet Supplemented With a Cereal-based Plant Protein Biscuit

Start date: February 1, 2022
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

Biscuits enjoy high popularity in the human diet and can be excellent snack alternatives and potential carriers of ingredients with appetite regulating properties. In the present study, the effects of a wheat biscuit enriched with plant proteins originated from legumes and seeds on gastrointestinal hormone responses of women with overweight/obesity after a hypocaloric dietary intervention will be examined.

NCT ID: NCT05199012 Completed - Inflammation Clinical Trials

Oral Supplementation With a Black Pepper Extract

Start date: December 15, 2021
Phase: N/A
Study type: Interventional

This study is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind, two-arm trial of N=94 apparently healthy men and women to be recruited at a single investigational center in Northeast Ohio. Subjects will attend three study visits. During Visit 1, subjects will be screened for participation (i.e., medical history, physical exam, routine blood work, background baseline diet). Over the next 12 weeks, subjects will attend Visits 2 (baseline) and 3 (week 12), wherein assessments of body weight, waist circumference, urinary ketones, serum glucose, insulin, liver enzymes as well as other biomarkers of metabolic health, quality of life (SF-36 questionnaire), and various visual analog scales (VAS) for appetite, satiety, and cravings will be made.
