NCT05815641

Brief Summary

The present study aims to evaluate in adults with normal weight and with overweight or obesity who live in the city of La Plata the circulating levels of various hormones that regulate appetite and the gene expression of their receptors in peripheral blood mononuclear cells before and after food intake.

Model Details: Participants will be given a test meal (breakfast) that provides 20% of the individual's daily energy requirement. The breakfast composition is 56 kcal% carbohydrates, 12 kcal% protein and 34 kcal% lipids and comprises yogurt, cereals and almonds. Participants will be asked to consume the entire breakfast in less than 15 min and to complete a visual analog scale (VAS) questionnaire every 15 min. Blood sampling will be repeated at 60 min after starting breakfast (postprandial).
