ClinConnect Summary

This clinical trial is studying how Huel powdered food affects feelings of fullness, or satiety, compared to a standard breakfast of cornflakes and milk. Researchers will invite 40 generally healthy volunteers to participate in the study. Each volunteer will visit the study center twice, where they will arrive on an empty stomach and receive one of the two breakfasts, both providing the same number of calories. The goal is to see how long each meal keeps people feeling satisfied.

To be eligible for this trial, participants should be generally healthy, between the ages of 65 and 74, and have a body mass index (BMI) between 20 and 30. They should not be pregnant or breastfeeding, have any food allergies, or be taking certain medications that might interfere with the results. Participants can expect to provide valuable information about how different foods affect hunger, and their involvement will help improve our understanding of nutrition. The study is not yet recruiting, but it aims to contribute important insights into appetite and food choices.
