We are conducting a research study on the effects of fiber-containing beverages on appetite and food consumption. Volunteers will attend a 30-45 minute screening session to determine eligibility. The study lasts 6-8 weeks total and involves 5 testing sessions in our lab (7:30 am to 2:30 pm). During test sessions, you will be provided breakfast, lunch, and a late afternoon meal and will complete short questionnaires.

We are looking for overweight men and women with regular eating habits who are: aged 18-45 y, healthy, non-dieting, non-smoking, not pregnant or nursing, without food allergies or sensitivities, and are able to understand, speak, read and write English.

Subjects will be paid up to $500 upon completing all study protocols.
