Food Advertisements, Satiety and Food Intake in Children
A study testing Glucose with water, non-caloric sweetener with water and TV program with non-food advertisements while feeding in people with Obesity Prevention, run by University of Toronto at 1 site in Canada.
Trial summary
We hypothesized that FA in a TV program watched during a meal, would block satiety responses to pre-meal energy consumption and delay satiation in OW/OB but not in NW boys and girls. Read more about this study

About this study
Official title: Effect of Food Advertisements on Satiety and Meal-Time Food Intake in 9-14 y Old Boys and Girls
We hypothesized that FA in a TV program watched during a meal, would block satiety responses to pre-meal energy consumption and delay satiation in OW/OB but not in NW boys and girls. Food intake was measured at 30 min following a glucose (1 g of glucose/kg body weight) or sweetened noncaloric beverage with or without the presence of food advertisements. Subjective appetite will be measured as well.
