Relative Effects of Chronic Consumption of Egg Protein at Breakfast With and Without Fiber on Brain Neural Activation, Appetite, Glycemic and Lipemic Control and Self-selected Energy Intake

The objectives of the research are to assess the effects of increased protein and fiber
intake at breakfast on neural activation in brain regions associated with appetitive drive
and reward-driven eating, measures of subjective appetite, and ingestive behavior in
overweight adults. Additional outcomes of interest include the effects of the breakfast
intervention on blood sugar and cholesterol profiles.

The objectives of the research are to assess the effects of increased protein and fiber
intake at breakfast on neural activation in brain regions associated with appetitive drive
and reward-driven eating, measures of subjective appetite, and ingestive behavior in
overweight adults. Additional outcomes of interest include the effects of the breakfast
intervention on 24-hour glucose profile as well as fasting and postprandial glycemic and
lipemic regulation. The investigators will test the effects of consuming breakfasts with
normal protein/normal fiber (NPNF), normal protein/high fiber (NPHF), high protein/normal
fiber (HPNF), and high protein/high fiber (HPHF) for two weeks in a randomized cross-over
study.
