Brief Summary

The frequent consumption of pulses is associated with multiple cardiometabolic benefits in adults including a lower risk for overweight and obesity. However, it remains unclear whether these effects are mediated through the short-term mechanisms, including enhanced satiety and reduced food intake (FI), or through the long-term metabolic effects triggered by regular consumption of pulses. The objective of this study is to investigate the short-term effect of cooked pulses served in the amount similar to their recommended serving of 175ml (3/4 cup) on food intake in 12-14y children, and gastrointestinal comfort over 2-hours. The secondary objective is to evaluate how children perceive the sensory characteristics of the meals made with the whole pulses.
