Filter by: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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
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.
The purpose of this study is to determine the effects of 100% orange juice on short-term food intake (FI), satiety, post-prandial glycemia and mood in healthy adults. We hypothesize that the consumption of 100% orange juice in the pre-meal environment will improve satiety signals and mood, and suppress FI through its effect on post-prandial glycemia.
The aim of this project is to investigate the effect of erythritol (given as pre-load), compared to sucrose, sucralose, 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.
Pulse flours represent a fast-growing segment on the functional food market; however, their health effects are not well understood. The observational studies and acute trials have established the link between frequent consumption of cooked whole pulses (beans, peas, lentils and chickpeas) and healthier body weight and improved blood glucose control. However, it is not clear whether these effects still remain after the processing of pulses into flours. The investigators hypothesized that the baked food products formulated with lentil flour of the same particle size as all-purpose wheat flour may reduce postprandial glycaemia and elicit a stronger suppression of subjective appetite due to its higher content of protein and resistant carbohydrate compared to all-purpose wheat flour. The treatments will be formulated either with lentil flour or with all-purpose wheat flour of similar particle size or with their combination. The objective of the project is to test the effect of foods formulated with lentil flour and/or wheat flour on blood glucose, short-term food intake and subjective appetite.
