Milk protein and/or dietary fiber
In a randomized double-blind crossover study, 25 healthy men consumed a yogurt differing by casein-to-whey protein ratio or dietary fiber content (inulin and/or beta glucan). An ad libitum buffet was offered to them after 2 hours, during which energy intake was registered.
Reduced energy intake
The results do not show any difference in terms of appetite sensations. However, the yogurt enriched with whey protein results in a significantly lower energy intake during the buffet (-812 kJ). Against all expectations, the fiber-enrichments did not cause any material change in appetite sensations or energy intake during the buffet.
