Trial Summary
Trial Overview
Inclusion Criteria
The influences of specific dietary fat sources on satiety, appetite and energy utilization
remains unclear; evidence is lacking on whether responses vary according to acute intake. The
researchers will use a controlled setting to determine whether the source of dietary fat is
related to perceived satiety, satiety hormone responses, and energy expenditure by conducting
experiments to evaluate short term (acute) effects.


Inclusion Criteria:

- body mass index between 18.0-34.9 kg/m2

- free of major diagnosed, untreated medical conditions

- controlled hypertension

- non-smoking or use of other tobacco products, including e-cigarettes

- not taking steroid-based medications

- not planning to or currently attempting to gain or lose weight

- willing to comply with study demands

- use of oral contraceptives

- low intake of long chain omega 3 fatty acids

Exclusion Criteria:

- diagnosed eating disorders

- diabetes (blood sugar ≥ 126 mg/dl)

- hypertension (systolic ≥ 160 mmHg or diastolic > 100 mmHg)

- diagnosed cardiovascular, pulmonary, skeletal and metabolic disease

- currently pregnant or planning to become pregnant, or lactating

- taking medications known to affect appetite, blood lipids, body composition, body
weight, or food intake (appetite control drugs, steroids, antidepressants)
