Intervention/exposure
Study type
Interventional
Description of intervention(s) / exposure
Consumption of 1 x 200 g drink (treatment) made from either jasmine rice flour or riceberry rice flour in water (6.31% w/v). Treatments (including the control) are provided on separate days, in a random order and are to be drunk within five minutes. Adherence is measured via direct supervision. Washout period between drinks is at least 24 hours.
3 hours after treatment, participants are presented with an ad libitum buffet-style lunch and asked to eat until comfortably full.

Outcomes
Primary outcome [1] 319944 0
Self-reported satiety ratings using a 100 mm visual analogue scale
Timepoint [1] 319944 0
Immediately prior to treatment (baseline), 3 hours post treatment and following ad libitum buffet.
Primary outcome [2] 319945 0
Food intake based on an ad libitum buffet. Food intake measured via weight using balanced scales (g food supplied - g food returned at the end of buffet)..
Timepoint [2] 319945 0
3 hours post treatment..
Secondary outcome [1] 369957 0
Carbohydrate taste sensitivity measured using an ascending concentration 3-alternate forced choice test. Three samples of solution are served to the participant, where, two samples are control samples (filtered deionised water) and one sample contains oligofructose solution.
Timepoint [1] 369957 0
Immediately prior to treatment (baseline), 3 hours post treatment.

Purpose of the study
Treatment
Allocation to intervention
Randomised controlled trial
Procedure for enrolling a subject and allocating the treatment (allocation concealment procedures)
Allocation was concealed using unmarked drinking cups. All participants received the same styled drinking cup for each treatment.
Methods used to generate the sequence in which subjects will be randomised (sequence generation)
Simple randomisation using a randomisation table created by computer software. Participants were allocated a randomised sequence in order of date recruited.
Masking / blinding
Blinded (masking used)

Summary
Brief summary
The sense of taste has a significant role for identification of nutrients in foods, thereby initiating a variety of physiological and psychological responses to the nutrients, including satiety. The aim of the present study is to assess if carbohydrate taste sensitivity has an effect on carbohydrate intake-mediated satiety and to determine if the fibre content of a common food (riceberry rice vs jasmine rice in the form of beverages) can influence satiety.
