Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to assess the acute effect of dietary fat on satiety and energy metabolism.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Other: SFA
  • Other: MUFA
  • Other: PUFA-LA
  • Other: ALA
  • Other: LCn3

Detailed Description

The influences of specific dietary fat sources on satiety, appetite and energy utilization remains unclear; evidence is lacking on whether responses vary according to acute intake. The researchers will use a controlled setting to determine whether the source of dietary fat is related to perceived satiety, satiety hormone responses, and energy expenditure by conducting experiments to evaluate short term (acute) effects.
