Food Intake, Satiety
Conditions
Brief summary
To test the hypothesis that two 40 gm serving of Oat-based breakfast cereals compared to an equicaloric amount of a ready-to-eat Oat-based breakfast cereal will give greater satiety over the 4 hour period following breakfast.
Detailed description
The subjects will be randomly assigned to one of these three breakfasts and then given a Visual analogue scales of hunger and satiety which will be completed at baseline, 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes. Subjects will return on 2 other days separated by at least a week to repeat the breakfast test.
Interventions
OTHERBreakfast Test Cereal 1, Oat based
The study design is a crossover trial with each subject receiving one of the cereals in each of three visits separated by at least a week will be enrolled to investigate the satiety impact of three breakfast cereals: (a) one serving of oat based breakfast cereal 1.
OTHERBreakfast Test Cereal 2, Oat-based
The study design is a crossover trial with each subject receiving one of the cereals in each of three visits separated by at least a week will be enrolled to investigate the satiety impact of three breakfast cereals: (b) an equicaloric amount of Oat based breakfast cereal 2.
OTHERReady-to-eat cereal
The study design is a crossover trial with each subject receiving one of the cereals in each of three visits separated by at least a week will be enrolled to investigate the satiety impact of three breakfast cereals: (c) an equicaloric amount of the ready-to-eat cold cereal.
