Filter by:This study is a randomized crossover trail examining the effect of breakfast consumption or omission on afternoon resistance training performance. Resistance-trained adults will complete a resistance training workout comprised of barbell back squat, barbell bench press, and barbell conventional deadlift following either consuming breakfast and lunch, or the same amount of food consumed solely at lunch. For each testing session the participants will be provided with all food to consume prior to arriving at the laboratory. Major performance outcomes will be total repetition volume completed for each exercise (i.e. bench press, squat, and deadlift) and the entire workout (each individual trial), along with barbell kinematics for each exercise.
Many public health recommendations and policies aim to combat malnutrition in the elderly. It must be noted that levels of malnutrition are high in the elderly with more than 70% of the dependent population at home or in institutions and 30 to 70% of elderly people in hospitals. In hospitals, the collective catering system and the "medicalisation" of meals (diets, medicines, etc.) force patients to change their eating habits, and they are often faced with a lack of choice and a less pleasurable experience. These organizational constraints are particularly harmful for elderly patients who tend to be malnourished or at risk of malnutrition and who are often polypathological and polymedicated. If eating is one of the only pleasures sometimes left to this fragile population, breakfast is one of the most appreciated meals of the day (after a fasting time >10h). It tends to follow the habits acquired at home and is mostly oriented towards sweet foods. However, it is not known whether different and more varied choices could change dietary directions and intakes. Offering sweet and savoury foods can upset medical prescriptions, cultural habits and can go against what remains a patient need: the pleasure of eating. Although some work in the medico-social field has been successfully carried out and has reported changes in dietary behaviour in a choice situation (buffet type) at breakfast, scientific studies have not yet been done in a retirement home environment. The objective of this project is to emphasize the sensory pleasure and commensality of breakfast. During this buffet meal, sweet and savoury foods will be offered. The idea is to detect if the variety will naturally direct individual choices towards the savory and/or sweet flavours and if it encourages an increase in caloric and protein intakes. Several studies have shown that sensory changes in the elderly can lead to changes in behaviour and food preferences. The decrease in the pleasure only accentuates the causes of malnutrition. Moreover, preconceived ideas reinforce the association between the elderly and a preference for sweet foods. However, no study has shown that the elderly find less pleasure in savory than sweet foods, especially at breakfast. The research will be organized as follows: Phase 1: follow-up of breakfast consumption by food weighing. This is a prospective study that will be carried out at Dijon University Hospital within the retirement home. The consumption of each meal will be measured the day of the breakfast with savory and sweet options, and then two days after in usual conditions in the individual's room. The distribution, service and consumption methods will be consistent with the habits of the units where the investigation is taking place. For each resident, food consumption will be recorded three times, at one month intervals over 2 non-consecutive days. Phase 2: observations at breakfast time Pleasure evaluation - Feasibility - commensality - conviviality A SWOT (Strengths, Weaknesses, Opportunities and Threats) analysis will be conducted for each type of environment and meals offered. This analysis will be done using established grids and semi-directive interviews with resource persons who are working in the field (the professionals involved), and with research support units. The professionals will be asked to complete various scales, of the Likert type, before and after the breakfasts included in the study.
This study is a 24-week crossover design study in adolescents enrolled in the 6-8th grade within the Center School District in the Kansas City, MO. This school will begin their 'Breakfast in the Classroom' program during the fall 2018 school year. Baseline data will be collected to include anthropometric measures, participant characteristics, and past eating habits. For the first 8 weeks, the students will be provided with breakfast meals containing the USDA nutrition requirements. These meals are typically higher in carbohydrates and lower in protein. For the second 8 weeks, the students will be provided with higher-protein breakfast meals. These meals also contain the USDA nutrition requirements but include high-quality protein-rich foods. For the remaining 8 weeks, the students will be provided both types of meals and will be permitted to choose which they prefer to consume each day. At the end of each 8-week period, eating habits, appetite, mood, cognitive performance, and anthropometrics will be completed along with measurements of breakfast waste.
This study will test whether whether the implementation of and Egg-cellent 'Breakfast in the Classroom' improves school breakfast participation and breakfast consumption in middle school adolescents; whether the implementation of 'Breakfast in the Classroom' improves appetite control, mood, cognitive performance, and unhealthy snacking behavior in middle school adolescents when compared to a traditional school breakfast program.
75 overweight, habitual 'breakfast-skipping' adolescents will complete the following long-term, randomized controlled trial. Participants will be randomly assigned to the following breakfast treatments: 350 kcal high protein breakfasts containing 30 g protein (primarily from lean beef), 35 g carbohydrates, and 10 g fat; 350 kcal normal protein breakfasts containing 10 g protein, 55 g carbohydrates, and 10 g fat; or will continue to skip breakfast. The following outcomes will be assessed during baseline and 4-month (post-intervention): body weight & body composition; waist circumference; daily food intake; 24-h free-living glycemic control; and pre and post-prandial satiety. In addition, body weight and free-living breakfast intake (quantity, quality, and type) will also be assessed at 2-month follow-up
The purpose of this study is to determine the effect of carbohydrates of familiar breakfast meals on glycemic response, subjective appetite, and food intake in normal weight (NW) and overweight or obese (OW/OB) children.
Background: Skipping breakfast and/or overeating at evening, has been associated in type 2 diabetic (T2D) individuals, with higher BMI, visceral adiposity, hyperlipidemia, increased overall postprandial glycemia (PPHG) and higher HbA1c. The absence of breakfast is also associated with increased plasma free fatty acids (FFA) along the morning until lunch. High plasma FFA in turn are triggering factor of insulin resistance, by inhibiting insulin mediated glucose uptake in obese and T2D subjects The investigators therefore hypothesize that compared to eating breakfast the prolonged overnight fasting caused by the breakfast omission will result in increased postprandial glycemic response after subsequent isocaloric lunch and dinner in T2D individuals. Objectives: With this aim will study T2D patients in randomized crossover design to consume in two separate days, either 3 standard isocaloric meals: Yes Breakfast condition (YesB) or omit breakfast: no breakfast condition (NoB) and consume only lunch and dinner with the same caloric content. Methods and Study Design: The YesB intervention will consist on three identical meals coating 700 Kcal each: breakfast at 8:00, lunch at 13:00 and dinner at 19:00. The NoB intervention the breakfast will be omitted and the subject continue fasting until lunch. Then the participants will consume identical 700 kcal Lunch at 13:00 and 700 Kcal dinners at 19:00. The investigators will assess plasma glucose, insulin, C-peptide, GLP-1 and FFA with blood samples collected every 30 min up to 180 min after breakfast, lunch and dinner and at the same time point the blood samples will be collected after 8:00 when the breakfast will be omitted. Expected results: The investigators expect that compared to NoB condition, in the YesB condition the postprandial response after lunch and dinner will be reduced for glucose and for FFA, while plasma insulin, C-peptide and GLP-1 postprandial response after lunch and dinner will be enhanced
