Eating behaviour in obese and normal weight 11-year-old children.

The eating behaviour of 23 normal weight and 20 obese 11-year-old children was measured by the computerized eating monitor VIKTOR. The total intake of food, duration of consumption, rate of consumption and the relative rate of consumption were measured during two lunch meals. Subjective motivation to eat and food preferences were also measured. The obese children ate faster (P less than 0.05) and did not slow down their eating rate towards the end of the meal (P less than 0.05) as much as normal weight children. The obese children also described themselves as having less motivation to eat before lunch than normal weight children (P less than 0.05). A deficient satiety signal or an impared response to such signals in obese subjects could possibly explain these differences found.

Effects of a high-protein meal (meat) and a high-carbohydrate meal (vegetarian) on satiety measured by automated computerized monitoring of subsequent food intake, motivation to eat and food preferences.

We have examined the effects on satiety of equicaloric meals with different protein and carbohydrate content. Twenty normal weight healthy women were served cooked lunch meals made of commonly used natural food items with either a high-protein (43 energy %) (a meat casserole) or a high-carbohydrate (69 energy %) (a vegetarian casserole) content in a counterbalanced repeated measures design. The subsequent ad libitum evening meal intake (4 h after lunch) was measured by a 'universal eating monitor' and subjective feelings of motivation to eat and food preferences were assessed repeatedly. At the subsequent evening meal subjects ate 12 per cent less (P less than 0.05) after the high-protein meal compared to the high-carbohydrate meal. There was no difference in motivation to eat between meals. This could partly be explained by a difference in palatability between the meals. The food-preference lists showed that before lunch there was relative preference for high-protein foods in favour of high-carbohydrate foods. After lunch either meal produced instead a relative 'aversion' for high-protein foods. This 'aversion' was greater after the high-protein lunch meal than after the high-carbohydrate lunch meal.
