INTRODUCTION It is essential to determine which snack foods are most affective for appetite control. The objective of the current study was to assess the responses of two different cookies on satiety and cardiovascular risk factors. MATERIAL AND METHODS 38 patients were randomized: group I (FOS enriched cookie, n=19) and group II (control cookie, n=19). Previous and after 1 month , the subjec...

This review summarizes recent studies examining whole grain consumption and its effect on gut microbiota and satiety in healthy humans. Studies comparing whole grains to their refined grain counterparts were considered, as were studies comparing different grain types. Possible mechanisms linking microbial metabolism and satiety are described. Clinical trials show that whole grain wheat, maize, ...

Foods and dietary patterns that enhance satiety may provide benefit to consumers. The aim of the present review was to describe, consider and evaluate research on potential benefits of enhanced satiety. The proposal that enhanced satiety could only benefit consumers by a direct effect on food intake should be rejected. Instead, it is proposed that there is a variety of routes through which enha...

Measuring hunger and satiety in children is essential to many studies of childhood eating behaviour. Few validated measures currently exist that allow children to make accurate and reliable ratings of hunger/satiety. Three studies aimed to validate the use of a new categorical rating scale in the context of estimated and real eating episodes. Forty-seven 6- to 8-year-olds participated in Study ...

Some individuals exhibit a weak satiety response to food and may be susceptible to overconsumption. The current study identified women showing consistently low or high satiety responses to standardised servings of food across four separate days and compared them on behavioural, psychological and physiological risk factors for overeating and future weight gain. In a crossover design, 30 female p...

Exogenous histamine decreases food intake and injection of H-1 antagonists increases food intake in rats. Previous work has focused on the effect of relatively large doses of histamine on eating behavior, and have not measured the effect of histamine on postprandial satiety behaviors. This work measures the effect of small and large doses of histamine and investigates the effects of an H-1 rece...

In their short communication against satiety claims, Booth and Nouwen (2010) neglect dozens of well designed studies that show consistent relations between satiety, energy intake and body weight. Satiety, intake and weight are separate concepts, that need different claims and evidence to support them. Satiety can be measured reliably. A repeated higher satiety response to a specific food compar...

Nowadays it is known that sex hormones play an important role not only in the reproductive system but also thermoregulation, somatosensory control, and pain perception. Several studies have shown women are less tolerant of higher sensitivity predisposition to somatization chronification. In addition sex, feeding status essential factor for Metabolic factors glucose levels may a sensation pain. ...

OBJECTIVES Western dietary pattern predisposes to weight gain, insulin resistance and cardiometabolic diseases. Promoting satiety via modifications in diet composition could be useful to fight weight gain. Mediterranean diet which is recognized to be cardioprotective contains high fiber and unsaturated fat contents. We compared the effects of distinct breakfast patterns on satiety of individual...
