Calorie Anticipation Alters Food Intake After Low-Caloric but Not High-Caloric Preloads

摘要

ObjectiveCognitive factors and anticipation are known to influence food intake. The current study examined the effect of anticipation and actual consumption of food on hormone (ghrelin, cortisol, and insulin) and glucose levels, appetite and ad libitum intake, to assess whether changes in hormone levels might explain the predicted differences in subsequent food intake.
