Article Synopsis
- The study explored how the texture of food, particularly factors like lubricity and oral coating, affects feelings of hunger and food intake.
- Milk protein-rich beverages with varying coating properties were tested, showing that a high coating led to a temporary increase in fullness after 20 minutes.
- Results indicated that while a higher concentration of protein in saliva decreased appetite ratings, oral coating and lubricity have minimal impact on overall energy intake and gut peptide responses, suggesting the need for further research on these texture attributes.
With a dramatic increase in overweight and population with obesity over the last decades, there is an imminent need to tackle this issue using novel strategies. Addressing obesity issues by generating satiety in food to reduce energy intake has been one of those prominent strategies and often textural interventions have been used to generate satiety, specifically in short-term trials. This study aimed to investigate the role of preloads varying in their oral lubricating properties on appetite sensations, food intake, salivary friction and concentration of salivary biomarkers (proteins, α-amylase and mucins) in collected human saliva (n = 17 healthy participants).

Development of satiety-enhancing foods is considered as a promising strategy to reduce food intake and promote weight management. Food texture may influence satiety through differences in appetite sensations, gastrointestinal peptide release and food intake, but the degree to which it does remains unclear.
