Summary

Our goal is to investigate how hormones that control blood sugar, hunger, and stomach emptying change with puberty and being overweight. These substances change with a meal.

* For this, we need to compare lean and overweight children.
* We need to study them before and during puberty.
* All children in the study will be tested before and after a liquid meal.
