Abstract: | Four human subjects were fed ad lib with a bland diet for a period of 3 weeks. Their body weight decreased by 3.13 kg during this period. It was observed that the shift of the palatability response to sucrose solutions induced by a gastric glucose load (alliesthesia) was not affected by such a reduction of body weight. This result was compared to a previous experiment showing a decreased alliesthesia after a body weight loss due to the restriction of a palatable diet. These results confirm the role of the palatability of the diet on the maintenance of a body weight level and provide evidence for an interaction between the two factors in determining the oral satiation process. |
