Primary | Palatability | The aim of the study is to test for differences in palatability rats of four menus that will be administered during the ENERGY I project. During the pilot study, weill will collect palatability ratings for each menu (breakfast, lunch, and dinner) from four different menus that will be served to participants during the main trial. The menus consist of three diets and baseline. that vary in dietary fat and energy density : 1) high fat/high energy density, 2) hgih fat/low energy density, and 3) high carbohydrate/low energy density. | 2 days | No |
