Puravita Breakfast is a high protein and high fiber soft bread that contains 22% fruit (figs, apricots, raisins and prunes), a selection of cereals: wheat, oat and spelt and no added sugar.

White bread (85g) with jam (10g) and margarine (2g) adjusted for energy, fat, and sugar levels and for energy density.

The Focus of the Study is Healthy Volunteers

The study was done in duplicate i.e two different days each meal (control and experimental) separated at least one week in time. Subjects were instructed to consume the test meal within 10 min from commencement. They subsequently completed VAS on appetite sensation every 30 min until a total of 4 hours. At the end of the test day, an ad libitum lunch consisting of a standardized pizza (17E% protein, 34E% fat and 49E% carbohydrate) and water (300 ml) was served. The subjects were instructed to eat until comfortably satisfied. Food intake was registered and energy intake (EI) calculated afterwards.

Appetite Regulation by a Breakfast Soft Bread

Appetite Ratings, Postprandial Glucose, Insulin and Gastrointestinal Hormone Responses After the Intake of an Enriched Fiber and Protein Breakfast Soft Bread in Healthy Adults

The behavioural markers of appetite satiation and satiety can be estimated by using two categories of behavioural parameters: subjective sensations and food consumption:
Motivation to eat or subjective sensations: by determining appetite-related self-reports include a range of measures intended to capture, over a given period, specific somatic sensations or perceived general state of hunger/repletion, motivation (desire) to eat (in general or specific food types), or prospective judgments of the quantity of food or specific foods types that could or would be eaten (Blundell et al., 2010) using 100 mm visual analogue scales (VAS) (FLint et al., 2000).
Food intakes by determining the quantity of food consumed as measured in the laboratory by means of well-controlled protocols can be considered to be an objective measure of appetite (De Graaf et al., 2004).

Plasma glucose was determined spectrophotometrically (Ref. 1001191Spinreact) Incretins and insulin were determined with the Human Gut Hormone Panel (HMAG-34-04), which include ghrelin, GLP-1 and PYY, together with insulin.
For the determination of gut hormones, 2 ml of whole blood will be added Pefabloc SC (AEBSF) (Ref 11 585 916 001, Roche), needed for ghrelin determination (final concentration 1 mg/ml of whole blood) and dipeptidil dipeptidase IV (DPPIV) inhibitor (Ref. DPP-4-010, Linco), needed for the determination of GLP-1 (final concentration of 50 µM).
CCK was determined by using EIA Cat. No. EK-069-04, Phoenix Pharmaceuticals, Inc.,) after extraction from 1 ml of plasma
