Summary

The purpose of this study is to see what effect skipping breakfast versus consuming breakfast has on cognitive performance and the hormones responsible for glucose homeostasis in lean and obese adolescent males. The subjects will be tested on their ability to maintain attention when given several tasks called continuous temporal expectancy tasks (CTET) and electrophysiological signals using electroencephalogram (EEG) will be monitored. These two study groups will be randomized to one of two orders: (A,B) or (B,A) where A = breakfast intervention and B = no breakfast. There will be a washout period of 7 days in between study visits.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

A= Yes Breakfast

Study visit will include analysis of cognitive function (CTET), insulin, glucagon, C-peptide, free fatty acids, and GLP-1 when given breakfast and lunch

OTHER

B=No Breakfast

Study visit will include analysis of cognitive function (CTET), insulin, glucagon, C-peptide, free fatty acids, and GLP-1 when breakfast is skipped and lunch is provided.
