Satiety Response of White and Brown Rice Compared to Glucose Control

University of Minnesota20 enrolled

Overview

The investigators hypothesize that consumption of either white or brown rice will be more satiating than glucose control.

This study is an acute, randomized, repeated measures design with 20 subjects. Subjects will consume 3 test breakfasts, white rice, brown rice, or glucose control, each containing 400 calories. Treatments will be one week apart. After consumption of the controlled breakfast, subjects will complete visual analogue scales (VAS) for satiety response. Additionally, they will consume a pizza lunch and record food intake for the next 24 hours. Breath gas samples will be collected to estimate fermentation of fiber in the large intestine. Also, subjective data on gastrointestinal tolerance will be collected.
