Summary

Although there is evidence that low calorie sweeteners (LCS) do not stimulate hunger or appetite, divergent opinions appear regularly both in the scientific literature and in the popular press. The goal of this study is to examine the effects of LCS containing beverages on appetite and intake in healthy individuals.

Detailed description

The study will be a monocentric randomized controlled open trial including two parallel groups to examine effects of LCS beverages as compared to water on daily intakes of energy and macronutrients. The effects of LCS beverages on hunger, satiety, desire to eat and on the selection of sweet or savory foods eating occasions will be assessed.
