This project aims to demonstrate that the best breakfast meal is the one able to improve the best postprandial hunger, satiety and adiposity regulators profile as well as the best reward-related gratification, due to hedonistic parameters. To do this, 4 different breakfasts will be tested and blood tests, food choices, and attentional components will be analysed.
Although breakfast seems to be positively associated with healthy eating patterns and food choices later in the day, eating behaviours are a complex interaction of several factors. Nutritional requirements are not only affected by the body homeostasis, but also by environmental signals, as cultural and social habits, lifestyle, etc. These parameters evoke reward-related and motivational signals influencing our daily eating behaviour choices. Most of the theories on food regulation propose two parallel systems interacting with food consumption homeostatic and reward-related systems. For all these reasons, there is an increasing interest on motivational and decisional aspects of food choices, eating behaviours and how they are influenced by food characteristics. This project aims to explore the association between compositional and perceived characteristics of a breakfast meal with nutritional/biochemical/physiological variables. The approach will be the evaluation of appetite, food intake as well as metabolic and compensatory responses to foods consumed during the day. Volunteers (n=15) will be fed with 4 different breakfast meals (one control and three iso-caloric with different glycemic indexes) and several different parameters will be evaluated, as biological parameters linked to satiety, food choices during a free lunch buffet, psycho-physiological and biological mechanisms underlying the compensatory effect and attentional components in the postprandial period. The participants will complete, in randomized order, the four breakfast meals, on four different weeks, separated by at least one week.

| Label | Type | Description | Intervention Names |
|---|---|---|---|
| Breakfast meal 1 | Experimental | Breakfast meal 1 is isocaloric (330 kcal) and similar for protein and fiber contents in relation to the other two experimental breakfasts. It has the same sugar and lipid profiles as Breakfast meal 2 and health-related cognitive perception as Breakfast meal 3. Breakfast consumption; Blood tests; Food choices and energy intakes assessments; Attention tests; fRMI tests. |
|
| Breakfast meal 2 | Experimental | Breakfast meal 2 is isocaloric (330 kcal) and balanced for protein and fiber contents with regard to the other two experimental breakfasts. It has the same sugar and lipid profiles as Breakfast meal 1 but a higher health-related cognitive perception than the other two experimental breakfasts. Breakfast consumption; Blood tests; Food choices and energy intakes assessments; Attention tests; fRMI tests. |
|
| Breakfast meal 3 | Experimental | Breakfast meal 3 is isocaloric (330 kcal) and similar for protein and fiber contents in relation to the other two experimental breakfasts. It has the same health-related cognitive perception as Breakfast meal 1 but lower lipid and higher sugar amounts than the other two experimental breakfasts. Breakfast consumption; Blood tests; Food choices and energy intakes assessments; Attention tests; fRMI tests. |

| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Changes in biomarkers of appetite regulation in response to each breakfast: |
| 4 hours (0 -12h fasting-, 15, 30, 45, 60, 90, 120, 150, 180, 210, 240 minutes) |
| Measure | Description | Time Frame |
|---|---|---|
| Hedonic rating of breakfast measured by 7-point Likert Scales | healthy, satiating, palatable, energizing and caloric perception | 2 times: 0-12h fasting- and 15 minutes after breakfast consumption |

| Breakfast meal 4 | Placebo Comparator | Breakfast meal 4 is a non-caloric meal representing fasting condition (control arm). Breakfast consumption; Blood tests; Food choices and energy intakes assessments; Attention tests; fRMI tests. |
|
| Blood tests | Other | On the third day, participants will be involved in blood tests. Blood will be taken at baseline (fasting), and up to 4 hours after consuming the breakfast. Participants will complete serial visual analog rating scales of hunger and fullness before (fasting) and every 30 minutes up to 4 hours after breakfast consumption. |
|
| Food choices and energy intakes assessments | Other | Following the last blood sample, participants will be given the opportunity to consume food ad libitum from a buffet lunch. Double weighing of food will be set up to evaluate food choices and energy intake of lunch. During the test week, participants will record all foods and beverage on a 7-day food dairy. |
|
| Attention tests | Other | On the fourth day, 4 hours after the breakfast consumption and avoid other foods, participants will be involved in attentional test (Mackworth Clock Test for sustained attention and Stroop Test for selective attention). |
|
| fRMI tests | Other | On the fifth day, 4 hours after the breakfast consumption and avoid other foods, participants will focus on a set of photographs (stimuli will be randomly choose from three categories of pictures including food, nonfood, and blurred baseline images) during an fMRI brain scan procedure to scan brain activation responses |
