Registration Number
NCT03625245
Lead Sponsor
Instituto de Investigación Hospital Universitario La Paz
Brief Summary

The purpose of this study is to evaluate the satiating effects of different functional yogurts enriched with soluble fiber or vegetable protein on overweight subjects (BMI ≥25 and \<30 kg / m2).

Some studies have shown the contribution of high-fiber foods in the reduction of the cardiovascular risk. On the other hand, protein consumption could have a greater satiety potential compared to other macronutrients.

Detailed Description

A randomized, cross-over and double-blind pilot study with 3 study arms is being performed to evaluate the satiating properties of different functional enriched yogurts with soluble fiber or vegetable protein in a group of healthy overweight subjects.

The investigators included 12 participants (6 men and 6 women) between 18 and 55 years (BMI ≥25 and \<30 kg / m2). All volunteers will be randomized into 3 study groups, and participants will receive the 3 different study products in order during the 3 experimental phases.

Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change from Baseline Satiety Hunger AssessmentDay 1, 8, 15

Visual Analogue Scale (VAS). 100mm horizontal line anchored at each end with the extremes of the subjective feeling to be quantified. Subjects are instructed to rate the sensation being experienced according to how they define the line.

e.g., "not at all hungry" (0mm) and "as hungry as I have ever felt" (100mm). Multiple measures are taken at repeated time intervals described below.
