KA Higgins, RD Mattes - The American journal of clinical nutrition, 2019 - Elsevier
ABSTRACT Background Low-calorie sweeteners (LCSs) provide sweetness with little or no
energy. However, each LCS's unique chemical structure has potential to elicit different
sensory, physiological, and behavioral responses that affect body weight. Objective The
purpose of this trial was to compare the effects of consumption of 4 LCSs and sucrose on
body weight, ingestive behaviors, and glucose tolerance over a 12-wk intervention in adults
(18–60 y old) with overweight or obesity (body mass index 25–40 kg/m 2). Methods In a …
