Filter by:This study will examine appetitive sensation variability and the relationship between appetitive sensations and energy intake. Investigators believe the methods for assessing and interpretation of appetitive sensations are problematic and mask the true influence of these sensations on eating. This limits the development of guidelines for weight management. To gain a better understanding of the relationship, investigators will track hourly appetite sensations and map these to eating events via time-series analyses to gain new insights on the directionality and magnitude of these relationships. Also, investigators will also examine the association of apetitive ratings with age or gender. This will allow the development of more effective weight management recommendations.
This study investigated the effects of Greek traditional meals in dehydrated form consumed after reconstitution with water on glycemic responses
This study aimed to compare the postprandial effects of ß-glucan derived from oats bread (OB) and barley bread (BB) on appetite and glycemia. A randomized, double-blind, crossover trial included 20 healthy individuals. All participants consumed BB, white bread (WB), and whole wheat bread (WWB) with a standard breakfast and then were served an ad libitum lunch on four different days. A visual analog scale (VAS) was used to assess appetite before breakfast and at 15, 30, 60, 90, 120, 150, and 180 minutes after breakfast. Blood glucose levels were measured at 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, and 120 minutes. Postprandial appetite and glucose responses were quantified as the incremental area under the curve (iAUC) calculated according to the trapezoidal rule.
The aim of this study is to compare acute effects of consuming extra virgin coconut oil (EVCO) as a source of medium chain fatty acids and extra virgin olive oil (EVOO) as a source of long chain fatty acids in normal weight and obese subjects.
Consuming large volumes of water has recently been identified as a common weight loss strategy among U.S. adults. It is a widespread belief that drinking water increases feelings of satiety and reduces food intake, which could contribute to long-term weight maintenance. Many studies have shown support for this, demonstrating water's ability to reduce hunger and energy intake. In some cases, increased water consumption was associated with weight loss. However, the mechanisms of how water affects food intake have been minimally explored. There is potential that the effect of water on reduced food intake and increased satiety is due to individuals' belief that water will reduce their appetite and food intake. The question remains if water expectancy has a meaningful influence on water's ability to reduce food intake. The investigators hypothesize that participants will report less hunger and consume fewer calories when given water and an expectancy that water will affect appetite, compared to a condition when given water and do not expect water to have an effect on appetite. We further hypothesize that calorie intake will not meaningfully differ when participants are given water with no expectancies compared to when given no water. During this experiment, the investigators will vary the presence of water and manipulate expectancies about water's effects on appetite across three conditions: (1) an expectancy and water condition; (2) an expectancy and no water condition; and (3) a no expectancy and water condition. In each condition, participants will engage in a bogus taste test and complete two short cognitive tasks for distraction purposes. In an effort to prevent demand characteristics, this study involves deception. Participants will be told that the research team is interested in testing the effects of three different mint herb variations on attention, coordination, and taste perceptions. After completing the cognitive tasks and taste test, participants will have a 10 minute period to eat as much of the remaining food as they'd like. Food will be weighed before and after this period (without the participant's knowledge) in order to determine caloric intake.
Dietary protein plays an important role in appetite regulation. Source of ingested dietary protein may have different effects on appetite, satiety, and/or food intake in humans. Insects are a rich source of protein consumed by many people around the world; however, the capacity of insect-derived protein to regulate appetite and food intake is unclear. The purpose of this study was to compare postprandial plasma glucose, insulin, amino acid, and appetite regulatory hormone concentrations, subjective appetite sensations, and food intake following the ingestion of 25 g of cricket- and beef-derived protein in healthy young males.
This study aims to compare the effect of meals high in protein, fat and carbohydrate but equal in energy and volume on energy intake, perceived appetite and gastric emptying in younger (<40 years) and older (> 65 years) people living in the United Kingdom (UK).
The study is a randomized controlled trial studying the acute effect of intense aerobic exercise upon NK (Natural Killer) cell activation and appetite-regulation in human participants with or without concommitant IL-6R receptor blockade (Tocilizumab)
The study was carried out once a week on the same day and for three-week duration, with total of 17 randomly selected participants with ages between 18 and 24 years. The test foods containing different vegetable fiber sources (chickpeas and oats) were given to the participants every week as isocaloric, which have been the control food for a week. The satiety status was evaluated by visual analog scale (VAS) for total of five times as immediately before the test food consumption and at 30, 60, 90 and 120 minutes after consumption. Fasting and postprandial blood glucose levels were measured. A 24-hour retrospective food consumption record was obtained the next day.
This study examines the effect of soluble fiber dextrin on food intake, appetite, and physiological markers of appetite. Adults aged 18-45 years with a BMI were recruited for this study. Participants were given two doses of SFD in the morning and appetite, food intake and physiological markers of appetite were measured over 10 years.
