Limited research has examined the effects of habitual SSB consumption on hunger/fullness
ratings and gut hormones. This study hypothesized that high versus low intakes of habitual
SSBs would result in greater hunger, decreased fullness, and a blunted gut hormone
response, however the high versus low fiber group would exhibit decreased hunger and
increased fullness. This was a randomized crossover feeding trial with 47 African American
and Hispanic adolescents. The experiment included three 24-hour recalls to assess habitual …

This study hypothesized that high versus low habitual intake of SSBs would result in greater
hunger, decreased fullness, and a blunted gut hormone response after a high sugar low
fiber (HSLF) and a low sugar high fiber meal (LSHF). This was a randomized crossover
feeding trial with 47 overweight/obese African American and Hispanic adolescents (mean
age= 15.6 y, 48% female, 35% African American). Participants were randomly fed a HSLF or
LSHF breakfast and lunch followed by an ad libitum meal. During the breakfast and lunch …
