Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: 15% protein meal and sweetened beverage

Breakfast and lunch will each contain 15% protein. A sweetened flavored beverage will be served with each meal; one drink will be sweetened with sugar and the other with sucralose (a non-nutritive sweetener). Order will be randomized.

Other: 15% protein
Meal to provide 15%en from protein.

Other: Sweetened beverage
Beverage sweetened with either sugar (sucrose) or sucralose (non-nutritive sweetener).

Experimental: 30% protein meal and sweetened beverage

Breakfast and lunch will each contain 30% protein. A sweetened flavored beverage will be served with each meal; one drink will be sweetened with sugar and the other with sucralose (a non-nutritive sweetener). Order will be randomized.

Other: 30% protein
Meal to provide 30%en from protein.

Other: Sweetened beverage
Beverage sweetened with either sugar (sucrose) or sucralose (non-nutritive sweetener).

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Postprandial lipid oxidation rate [4 hours after meal consumption]

Secondary Outcome Measures

  1. Energy expenditure measured by postprandial thermogenesis [4 hours after meal consumption]

  2. Postprandial protein oxidation [4 hours after meal consumption]

  3. Postprandial carbohydrate oxidation [4 hours after meal consumption]
