Summary

This study looked at how four different instant maize porridges affect hunger and fullness. Fifty healthy adults aged 18-35 with normal weight took part. They ate the porridges after fasting overnight and reported their appetite, plus gave blood samples to measure hunger-related hormones and blood sugar. The goal was to see if whole-grain maize porridge keeps people fuller longer than other types.
