Fat Burning After a Meal

Post-Prandial Substrate Utilization in Response to the Inclusion of Sweetened Beverage to Meals With Different Levels of Protein Content

The purpose of the study is to determine how adding a carbohydrate beverage to a meal with different protein levels affects the rate at which one's body burns fats, sugars, and proteins.

Arms and Interventions

Participant Group / Arm
Intervention / Treatment
Experimental: 15% protein meal and sweetened beverage
Breakfast and lunch will each contain 15% protein. A sweetened flavored beverage will be served with each meal; one drink will be sweetened with sugar and the other with sucralose (a non-nutritive sweetener). Order will be randomized.
Meal to provide 15%en from protein.
Beverage sweetened with either sugar (sucrose) or sucralose (non-nutritive sweetener).
Experimental: 30% protein meal and sweetened beverage
Breakfast and lunch will each contain 30% protein. A sweetened flavored beverage will be served with each meal; one drink will be sweetened with sugar and the other with sucralose (a non-nutritive sweetener). Order will be randomized.
