Filter by:An intervention study on the effect of cannabidiol on lean body mass in cancer patients receiving chemotherapy, at the department of Clinical Oncology at Zealand University Hospital, Roskilde, Denmark. Fat free mass will be measured by bioimpedance spectroscopy. As secondary outcomes protein and energy intake, nausea, taste alterations and life quality will be assessed by oral interviews and questionnaires.
A fundamental limitation to the application of appetitive sensations is how they are measured. The most common approach relies on untrained individuals to self-report the sensations they experience under a given set of conditions. Investigators believe this is problematic because assumptions made about participant ratings are likely not valid. The proposed protocol will permit examination of whether training on appetite lexicon enhances the reliability of appetite ratings. Investigators also hypothesize that different preloads will induce different magnitudes of appetite sensations (hunger, fullness, desire to eat, and prospective consumption) depending on their energy density.
This study will investigate the effects of high-protein, high-fat snacks, specifically Greek yogurt, and peanuts, on satiety, gut hormones, and insulin secretion in overweight and obese women. The hypothesis posited that peanuts will exhibit a more beneficial impact on satiety, gut hormones, and insulin levels compared to Greek yogurt. The two-arm parallel randomized trial will involve 52 participants aged 30 to 40 with a BMI between 25-35 kg/m²,and they will be randomly divided into peanut (n=26) and Greek yogurt (n=26) groups. Pre-snack, BMI and dietary intake will be assessed. Appetite sensations will be gauged using a visual analog scale (VAS) upon arrival, and at 30- and 60-minutes post-snack. Pre- and post-snacking, plasma levels of cholecystokinin (CCK), Peptide Tyrosine-Tyrosine (PYY), Glucagon Like Peptide-1 (GLP-1), Ghrelin (GHRL), and insulin will be analyzed.
Based on in vitro studies identifying changes in food structures potential to delay digestion as well as results from animal studies showing potential of these foods to decrease appetite, nano-particulated whey protein and high molecular weight whey protein-alginate coacervates were chosen to be investigated in humans. Thereby, the aim of this short-term study is to investigate if nano-particulated whey protein has appetite reducing effects in humans compared to non-particulated whey protein (Part 1) as well as if high molecular weight whey protein-alginate coacervates have appetite reducing effects in humans compared to calcium alginate (Part 2).
A recent clinical trial demonstrated the efficacy of Gelesis100 use for weight loss (Obes 2019;27:205-216). The present trial is designed to explore the mechanisms by which it may work, i.e. by suppressing hunger, altering food intake and/or altering the efficiency of energy extraction from food.
The liking of a breakfast meal has been shown to influence food choice throughout the day. This study will investigate the effects that liking of different coffee beverages has on daily food intake.
The main aim of the study is to elucidate the influence of fibre-based hydrogels differing in their mechanical properties (characterized both instrumentally and sensorially) in terms of low/ high lubricity on satiety, satiation and salivary biomarkers.
This study will examine markers of vascular endothelial function (vascular health) and metabolic profiles in older versus younger transgender men (people who were assigned female at birth but whose gender identity is male). Data will also be compared to those from age group-matched transgender women and cisgender women and men.
The aim of the study is to investigate how glycemia and ketonemia variations during three different diet protocols: a ketogenic diet without any restriction on calories intake (KD), a calorie-restricted ketogenic-mediterranean diet (KEMEPHY) and a calorie-restricted mediterranean diet (MD) affect appetite, executive functions and mood in overweight young women.
