Satiety Assessment

Determining the effect of food on the feelings of hunger is very relevant in today’s market, with significant implications for weight loss. At GI Labs, newly-designed protocols for satiety measurement allow us to better detect satiation differences.

Features of the satiety protocols include:

• Extensive subject screening and selection
• Randomized, double-blind crossover design
• Study designs which allow both qualitative and quantitative evaluation of satiety
• Measurements and meals timed to the product’s expected satiation peak
• Private, controlled feeding areas
• Options for measurements of satiety hormones
• Ethics approval by the Western Institutional Review Board

With study protocols offering both food intake measures and subjective feelings of satiety, our scientific team is able to customize the study design for your specific objectives.
