Healthy Diet: Study reveals impact of hyper-palatable foods
New Delhi, Feb 01 (ANI): Findings from experts at the National Institutes of Health (NIH) and the University of Kansas may offer more precise instructions regarding the food you place on your plate if reducing weight was one of your 2023 resolutions. Researchers tried to identify which aspects of meals were crucial for determining how many calories were consumed using data from prior studies. They discovered that three meal elements–meal energy density (i.e., calories per gram of food), the quantity of “hyper-palatable” foods, and how rapidly the meals were consumed–consistently contributed to higher calorie intake across four different dietary patterns. The meals’ protein composition also contributed to calorie consumption, but its impact was less consistent.
