OBJECTIVE:To test whether the palatability of a test meal altered compensatory eating following disguised high-energy fat and carbohydrate preloads. DESIGN: Effects of preload energy (low, 265 kJ, or high, 1510 kJ) and test-meal palatability (bland or palatable) were contrasted within-subjects, with a between-subjects contrast of fat and carbohydrate preloads. SUBJECTS: Twenty-four healthy, normal men (age 23.6 AE 1.0 y, (body mass index) BMI 21.3 AE 0.5). MEASUREMENTS: Microstructural analysis of test meal intake and rated appetite in the four test conditions, plus diary-based weighed intake analysis of energy intake post-lunch. RESULTS: Subjects ate signi®cantly less at lunch after disguised high-energy fat or carbohydrate preloads relative to the lowenergy preload, and ate signi®cantly more of the palatable than bland lunch in all conditions. The reduction in eating following the high-energy preload was signi®cantly less in the palatable condition. Intake post-lunch did not differ between conditions, and overall subjects had higher daily energy intake on the days they consumed the high-energy preloads. Rated hunger was signi®cantly less 30 min after the high-than low-energy preloads, but increased on tasting the palatable food in all conditions. The high-energy preloads suppressed appetite immediately post-lunch. No differences between fat and carbohydrate were found on any measure. CONCLUSIONS: Manipulation of the palatability of a test meal modi®ed the ability to respond to disguised high-energy preloads, with over-consumption most evident when disguised high-energy preloads were followed by a palatable food. Subsequent voluntary intake compensated for over-consumption of the palatable lunch, but not the high-energy preload.
scite is a Brooklyn-based organization that helps researchers better discover and understand research articles through Smart Citations–citations that display the context of the citation and describe whether the article provides supporting or contrasting evidence. scite is used by students and researchers from around the world and is funded in part by the National Science Foundation and the National Institute on Drug Abuse of the National Institutes of Health.
