NCT01025687

Brief Summary

The investigators hypothesize that television viewing will affect food intake in adolescent girls, and will depend on pubertal stage. Food intake will be measured at 30 min following a glucose(1 g of glucose/kg body weight) or sweetened noncaloric beverage with or without the presence of TV. Subjective appetite will be measured as well.
