Trial summary

This study is to determine if two breakfasts of equivalent calories, an oat based breakfast cereal or a ready-to-eat cereal, provide the same satiety benefits. The study will also determine if the two calorically equivalent oat-based breakfast cereals give different caloric intakes at a lunch meal that participants… Read more about this study

About this study

Official title: The Effect of Oat Based Breakfast Cereals on Satiety and Food Intake.

This study is to determine if two breakfasts of equivalent calories, an oat based breakfast cereal or a ready-to-eat cereal, provide the same satiety benefits. The study will also determine if the two calorically equivalent oat-based breakfast cereals give different caloric intakes at a lunch meal that participants will eat to their satisfaction.

Read the detailed description

The Second trial (Period 2): An additional 48 healthy men and women 18 years of age or older will be enrolled to investigate the satiety and food intake at lunch after a breakfast consisting of one of two randomly assigned oat-based cereals and milk breakfast. Visual analogue scales of hunger and satiety will be completed before breakfast and at, 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes following consumption. Subjects will be asked to eat Lunch until satisfied. The subjects will have the two breakfasts in a balanced and random order and the two meal tests will be separated by at least a week.

What participants receive

What participants receive. In a randomised study each person is assigned to one group by chance.

  • Test cereal 1, Oat-basedOther

    The study design is a lunch that will be presented 4 hours after the start of breakfast. Subjects will be asked to eat until satisfied and food intake will will be measured. The effect on hunger and satiety will be measured using visual analog scales before breakfast and at 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes following consumption.

  • Test Cereal 2, Oat basedOther

    The study design is a two visit trial with each subject randomly receiving one of the cereals at each visit separated by at least a week. A lunch will be presented 4 hours after the start of breakfast. Subjects will be asked to eat until satisfied and food intake will be measured. The effect on hunger and satiety will be measured using visual analog scales before breakfast and at 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes following consumption.

What is being measured

The primary outcome is the main question the study is designed to answer.

  1. Satiety Impact

    Breakfast containing 250 kcal of Oat-based breakfast cereal will cause people to eat less at lunch compared to a breakfast containing 250 kcal of the ready-to-eat oat-based breakfast cereal. Area under the curve (AUC) of appetite and satiety.

    Measured: Baseline to 2 days

Secondary outcomes (1)
  1. Impact on food intake at lunch

    You will fill out a visual analog scales at 30, 60, 120, 180, and 240 minutes following the start of the breakfast meal each day.

    Four hours after the start of breakfast, you will be presented with a lunch and will be asked to eat to your satisfaction over 20 minutes. You will be asked how you are feeling periodically throughout the test. Area under the curve for subjective energy measures

    Measured: Baseline to 2 days
