Summary

Dietary protein appears to be the most satiating and thermogenic macronutrient. However, how protein exerts its effect on appetite is not fully known. The effect have been suggested to be related to a higher oxidation rate of protein compared to carbohydrate and fat, and also to a greater thermogenic effect causing greater increase in core temperature. The involvement of peripheral appetite-regulating hormones has only been sparingly investigated.

The objective is to investigate the satiating effects of meals with varying content of meat-based protein and whether a dose-response effect can be found on appetite-regulating hormones and appetite ratings.

Design: 25 men will participate in the 3-way, randomized, double-blind, crossover study. The test meals is isocaloric with 30E% fat and increasing protein content at the expense of carbohydrate. Test meals are: normal protein content (NP, 14E% protein), medium-high protein content (MHP, 25E%), and high protein content(HP, 50E%). Four-hour subjective appetite ratings and blood samples will be assessed every half-hour. Subsequently, the subjects will served an ad libitum lunch.

Dose-reponse effect of protein on appetite and appetite-regulating hormones

3-arm meal study for investigation of the mechanisms responsible for the satiating effects of protein in three isocaloric test meals with a protein content of 14, 25 or 50 E% protein. A possible 4-h dose-response effect of protein was investigated on a number of appetite-regulating hormones/peptides, together with changes in subjective appetite sensations and sensory desires were evaluated and ad libitum energy intake.
