Abstract

A WIDE variety of metabolic influences on appetite have been proposed, including glucose utilisation rate1, influences from adipose tissue²,³ or plasma amino acid pattern⁴,⁵ and the heat increment during absorption of a meal⁶. It is difficult to relate short term effects of the metabolism of absorbed nutrients which indeed occur⁷, to the long term precision with which energy exchange is often regulated.
