Component

Human subjective satiety

Human subjective satiety. Species, exposure and limitations are retained in each linked claim.

2 recorded relationships. Experimental role, claim status and evidence remain attached to each record.

How nutrients influence it

Every nutrient with a recorded effect on this component, credited to the nutrient that acted rather than the chapter that recorded it. Open a nutrient to see the findings and the conditions they were measured under.

How nutrients reach it in more than one step

Chains of two or more recorded steps that end here, grouped by the nutrient they start from. Each step is a separate finding, so a chain is a route a mechanism could take, not proof that it does.

Where it participates (unsigned role)

  1. Oat beta-glucan increased feelings of fullness and satiety but did not affect energy and amount eaten at the ad libitum test meal, and there was a treatment by time interaction for plasma GLP-1, plasma insulin and blood glucose, with GLP-1 significantly reduced at 90 minutes, blood glucose at 30 minutes and plasma insulin at 30 and 60 minutes following the oat beta-glucan breakfast compared with the control breakfast, so four grams of high molecular weight oat beta-glucan lowers appetite but not ad libitum eating and beneficially modulates postprandial glycaemia, it does however not increase plasma GLP-1 secretion.
