It is hypothesized that yellow pea protein and fiber will reduce short-term food intake, subjective appetite and glycemic response.
A within-subject, randomized study was conducted. Each subject returned 5 times, 1 week apart, and received 1 of the 5 treatments per week. The 5 treatments were tomato soup with 10 or 20 g of isolated yellow pea fibre or protein, or a control soup with no added pea fractions. Food intake was measured at an ad libitum pizza meal served 2 hours after treatment. Satiety and blood glucose (via finger prick) were measured throughout the treatment period.
