Choosing & Processing Foods for Satiety: The Science 101 for Regular Consumers and Food Industry Insiders

Image
Don't worry, this is no article about "Frankenfood" like salami bananas, ... According to the drugs.com definition, a "designer food" is "a dietary supplements or foodstuffs containing nutrients and various combinations of vitamins, minerals, and other substances considered by some to offer clinically significant benefit, often without adequate scientific proof of efficacy." If you don't want your designer foods (or your self-prepared foods and meals) to fall into the latter category of products without adequate scientific proof of efficacy, this article is for you, because it summarizes the science on an often overlooked quality of food: its structure, and the effect the latter will have on your and/or customers' satiety.

Minimal Amounts of Fish Peptide Hydrolysate Double Fat Loss Compared to Whey Isolate on Energy Restricted Diet

Image
I certainly recommend eating fish. Whether I will be recommending fish hydrolysate supplements in the future, however, will have to be determined when additional studies with different baseline diets will have been published. You may remember that I've written about fish protein hydrolysates / peptides before. Unlike today's article, however, previous articles dealt with the effects of fish protein in rodents. Intrigued by in vitro and animal studies showing that fish-derived peptides demonstrated antihypertensive (Hatanaka. 2009; Kim. 2012; Li. 2012; Ngo. 2011), antioxidant (Nazeer. 2012; Najafian. 2012), immunomodulating effects (Duarte. 2006), reparative properties in the intestine (Fitzgerald. 2005; Marchbank. 2008), and effects in reducing plasma cholesterol and triglycerides levels (Möller. 2008), a group of Italian researchers decided to investigated the effect of Slimpro(R), a supplement containing commercially available fish protein hydrolysate from blue whiting (...

Overeating = Natural Response to Strict Dieting That Occurs Despite Increased Satiety Hormone Response to XXL-Meal

Image
This is not a photo from the full-text of the study, but it could be. After all the energy deficient diet was >90% below the maintenance intakes of the subjects. That's unfortunately much more severe than the average dieter's approach, but some of the things the scientists observed still have very general applications. If you've ever dieted to make the cut in a sports with weight classes, you will know this insatiable hunger which climaxes on the last two days when you are down to a handful of  calories per day. It's a hunger that won't be satisfied even if you eat an extra 1000 kcal above maintenance. Athletes competing in sports with weight classes may need to accept the post-dieting binge, but what about average Joes and Janes? Will a fasting day ruin the average dieters dieting efforts by making them eat more extra-calories on day 2 than they've economized the day before? A recent study from the  US Army Research Institute of Environmental Medicine ...

Taste Matters - Bypassing Taste Receptors Boosts Insulin & CCK Satiety Hormone Response to Food - Why Does That Happen & What Are the Implications, If There Are Any?

Infusions of nutrient solutions via a tube is often the last resort for doctors to save anorexic patients' lives - it's yet nothing anyone should do voluntarily for the satiety plus Spetter et al. observed. As a SuppVersity Reader you are no stranger to "incretin hormones" and their release in response to the interaction of food with the taste receptors that are distributed all over your body. Against that background you will probably not be surprised to hear that Martjee S. Spetter and her colleagues from the University Medical Center Utrecht and the Wageningen University found that bypassing oral the stimulation of oral taste receptors decreases the satiety and alters the appetite hormone response to a given meal. As the Dutch researchers point out, the interaction between oral and gastric signals is an important part of food intake regulation. Artificial sweeteners have a reputation of making you hungry - find out if they do Unsatiating Truth About...

Not Exercise, But Dieting Makes You Hungry: Beneficial or No Effects on Appetite of Exercise in Lean & Obese. (Ab-) using Exercise to Make Up For Messy Diets Still a Bad Idea!

Image
Will working out make you cheat on your diet, 'cause it leaves you drained and ravenous? Or is it even a stand-alone weight loss tool with satieting and anti-depressive effects? As a SuppVersity reader you will probably be aware of the fact that the purported "appetite increasing" effects of exercise are non-existent. Against that background, you won't be surprised to hear that scientists from the Norwegian University of Science and Technology have recently been able to show that the alleged hunger-inducing effects of exercise didn't occur, in twelve overweight/obese volunteers who had to perform moderate or high intensity exercise, either. The exercise sessions, which were spaced 1-week apart and to which the subjects were randomly assigned in a counter-balanced fashion lasted 1 hour and were - and this may be an important fact - performed after a standard breakfast.
