Evaluation of Common Bean Baked Snack Consumption on Subjective Satiety, Energy Intake and Glycemic Response in People With Overweight and Normal Weight

Plain-language summary

Introduction: Overweight and obesity are associated with an unbalanced energy intake caused by unhealthy dietary habits, including a constant consumption of energy-dense foods, saturated and trans fats, refined sugars, along with a deficient protein and dietary fiber intake. Pulse consumption has been demonstrated to improve long-term body weight management. Despite these benefits, in several regions, the consumption of pulses does not meet the local recommendations. Consequently, pulse research has increased widely in order to provide food alternatives reformulated with pulses to promote their consumption. Hypothesis: The consumption of a common bean baked snack (Phaseolus vulgaris L.) and cooked beans increases satiety, reduces energy intake and produce a low glycemic response in people with overweight and normal weight. Objectives: Evaluate the acute effect of a common bean baked snack and cooked bean consumption on subjective satiety and energy intake in people with overweight and normal weight. Material and Methods: Randomized crossover clinical trial, 18 subjects with normal weight and 18 subjects with overweight, 18-50 years old, consumption of 40 g of common bean baked snack, cooked beans and white bread (control). Subjective satiety, energy intake and glycemic response. * Intervention A: Common bean baked snack. * Intervention B: Cooked beans. * Control: White bread. Additionally, the glycemic index will be determined under the International Organization for Standardization (ISO) 26642:2010. 10 subjects with normal weight or overweight, 18-50 years old, consumption of 54 g of common bean baked snack and 25 g of anhydrous glucose. * Intervention A: Common bean baked snack. * Control: Anhydrous glucose
