A Short-Term Appetite Suppression Trial Using Appethyl™: The Pizza

Four hours after breakfast participants will be given a small amount of liquid to drink that will contain Appethyl™. They will not know which they are getting and it will be decided randomly, like flipping a coin. Participants will be presented with a pizza in a quantity more than they could reasonably be expected to eat 5 hours after the start of their lunch meal and be asked to eat to their satisfaction over 30 minutes. Participants are not expected to eat all of the pizza.
