Background
Consumption of added sugars is linked to excess adiposity in older age groups and breastfeeding has been shown to protect against later obesity.
Objectives
This investigation aimed to determine whether intake of added sugars associates with rapid weight gain in individuals under 2 years of age, if intake of added sugars associates with breastfeeding duration, and how both influence body...
Objective
Rapid eating is a risk factor for childhood obesity but has not been a focus of intervention with young children. The short‐term effects of a novel family‐based treatment, “Reduced Eating Pace” (RePace), were tested on child eating speed and secondary outcomes.
Methods
Twenty‐eight rapid eating children were randomized to RePace (n = 14) or Delayed Usual Care Control (DUC) (n = 14)...
Previous studies demonstrate humans can detect fatty acids via specialized sensors on the tongue, such as the CD36 receptor. Genetic variation at the common single nucleotide polymorphism rs1761667 of CD36 has been shown to differentially impact the perception of fatty acids, but comparative data among different ethnic groups are lacking. In a small cohort of Caucasian and East Asian young adults,...
Objective
Taste blindness to 6‐n‐propylthiouracil (PROP) associates with increased fat preference and intake. No studies have matched a diet to a woman's PROP phenotype to improve weight loss. This study investigated (1) whether PROP nontaster (NT) women would lose more weight following a low‐carbohydrate (LC) diet than a low‐fat (LF) diet, and (2) whether PROP supertaster (ST) women would lose more...
Objective
Changes in perceived intensity and liking of tasted foods have not been studied during weight loss from dieting. These outcomes were examined during a 6‐month lifestyle intervention in women who had been classified by sensitivity to the bitter taste marker, 6‐n‐propylthiouracil (PROP), and then randomized to a low‐fat or low‐carbohydrate diet.
Methods
Sixty‐nine women (BMI = 34.4 kg/m...
