OBESITY, DIABETES
Foods that promote satiety help to regulate energy balance and may assist with weight management. Future studies should consider test food dose and composition carefully as the volume of food, its sensory qualities, and the acceptance of the food respective of usual meal patterns, may be important in eliciting a feeling of fullness and satisfaction.Appetite hormone responses may be skewed in obesity, so testing in a healthy weight population may provide additional insight into population-based differences. In addition, measures of glucose and insulin would be useful to further explore metabolic responses, and testing in populations with diabetes is warranted.This study focuses on early phase satiety, so measuring responses over the long-term and after weight loss will better model the studies relating nut consumption to weight management.
