Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Variation in energy intakes

    Ad libitum food intake (kilocalories) will be determined during an 'all you can' eat buffet lunch. Food intakes will be measured over 5 days; 3 days prior to the study day, on the day of the study and the day after.

    1 day

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Variation in the feelings of appetite

    -30, 0, 15, 30, 45, 60, 75, 90, 105, 120, 135, 150 minutes

  • Variation in GLP-1

    0, 30, 60, 90 minutes

  • Variation in insulin

    0, 30, 60, 90 minutes

  • Variation in glucose

    0, 30, 60, 90, 120 minutes
