No results posted yet for this study

Summary

There is a distinct lack of experimental evidence on whether breakfast consumption and omission affect energy balance-related variables. This research is of particular relevance to adolescent girls due to concerns of low rates of breakfast consumption and physical activity in this population. This study aims to compare the effect of seven consecutive days of breakfast omission with standardised breakfast consumption on free-living physical activity energy expenditure, energy intake and perceived appetite and energy levels in adolescent girls.
