Read our Obesity research guide →This study doesn't follow the usual testing phases — it may be an observational study or a different type of research.
Researchers want to understand how different nutrients—protein and carbohydrates—affect your appetite and food choices afterward. In this study, you'll drink a liquid meal containing either protein or carbohydrates on two separate visits, then eat from a buffet while researchers measure what you choose and how much you eat. They'll also take blood samples and ask about your appetite feelings to understand how your body controls hunger.
Many people struggle with managing their weight and food intake, but we don't fully understand how different nutrients affect hunger and eating behavior. This research could help explain why some people feel fuller longer after certain foods, which might lead to better ways to help people maintain a healthy weight.

You'll visit the research center three times: once for screening and health checks, then twice for test visits about a week or two apart. At each test visit, you'll drink a liquid meal (protein-based at one visit, carbohydrate-based at the other), have blood drawn, rate your hunger on simple scales, and eat from a buffet while researchers observe your choices. Each test visit takes about 3 hours, and you'll also answer questions about your lifestyle and eating habits at the start.
