Brief Summary

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

Study to determine whether adding specific nutrients to a high-protein oral nutritional support (ONS), with and without fibre can reduce the feeling of satiety and may increase appetite in adults older than 65 years. This contributes to research into a new type of nutritional nutrition for people with disease related malnutrition (DRM)

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

ONS with fibre with added nutrients

Group Type OTHER

Oral nutritional supplement

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

During 4 test days, 1 bottle (125ML) of High protein ONS with or without fibre and with or without the added nutrients will be consumed by the subjects. During each test day, the subjects will complete questionnaires related to appetite and liking of the product from baseline (-5 minutes of start consumption of study product) until 120 minutes after start consumption of study product.

ONS without fiber with added nutrients

Group Type OTHER

Oral nutritional supplement

Intervention Type DIETARY_SUPPLEMENT

During 4 test days, 1 bottle (125ML) of High protein ONS with or without fibre and with or without the added nutrients will be consumed by the subjects. During each test day, the subjects will complete questionnaires related to appetite and liking of the product from baseline (-5 minutes of start consumption of study product) until 120 minutes after start consumption of study product.
