Detailed Description
This study assessing the effect on appetite satisfaction and short-term satiety of different plant compositions in the adolescent age segment wants to assess the satiating effect of two types of food supplements made with various types of fibers (inulin, maltodextrins, guar gum and dehydrated plums) in the subsequent intake of other foods, in satiety, and in the regulation of hormones (ghrelin, leptin and insulin) and other peptides involved in the mechanisms of satiety

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcome Measures
- Assessment of satiety using objective methods (blood analysis) [Change from week 1 to week 2]
Biochemistry : glucose, urea, BUN, creatinin (all in mg/dL)
- Assessment of satiety (blood analysis) [Change from week 1 to week 2]
Biochemistry : GOT and GPT (UI/L)
- Assessment of satiety using a subjective method (visual analogue scale) [Change from week 1 to week 2]
The perceived feeling of satiety will be measured using the 100mm "Visual Analogue Scale" labeled at a far end with a "mark" to the left of "extremely hungry", and on the other with an "extremely satiated"."
