Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

To assess the effect of inulin on appetite profile ratings, food intake and satiety hormones.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

Based upon a slower digestion and the fermentation in the intestinal tract, food containing soluble dietary fibres, such as inulin, is hypothesized to be more satiating, and to limit energy intake, in humans. Does supplementation of inulin (at 2 dosages) versus placebo over 13 consecutive days in normal to overweight men and women, lead to an increase in satiety, a reduction in food intake and stronger postprandial increases in GLP-1 and PYY?
