About this study

This study assessing the effect on appetite satisfaction and short-term satiety of different plant compositions in the adolescent age segment wants to assess the satiating effect of two types of food supplements made with various types of fibers (inulin, maltodextrins, guar gum and dehydrated plums) in the subsequent intake of other foods, in satiety, and in the regulation of hormones (ghrelin, leptin and insulin) and other peptides involved in the mechanisms of satiety

Fiber product with inulin, maltodextrin, gum guar and plum powder.

Control product

Dietary Supplement

Placebo product with maltodextrin and plum powder

Primary outcomes

  1. Assessment of satiety using objective methods (blood analysis)

    Time frame: Change from week 1 to week 2

    Biochemistry : glucose, urea, BUN, creatinin (all in mg/dL)

  2. Assessment of satiety (blood analysis)

    Time frame: Change from week 1 to week 2

    Biochemistry : GOT and GPT (UI/L)

  3. Assessment of satiety using a subjective method (visual analogue scale)

    Time frame: Change from week 1 to week 2

    The perceived feeling of satiety will be measured using the 100mm "Visual Analogue Scale" labeled at a far end with a "mark" to the left of "extremely hungry", and on the other with an "extremely satiated"."
