Satiety

What it is

Satiety describes the relative suppression of hunger after eating.

What it does

It is related to, but distinguishable from, satiation that helps bring a meal to an end.

Research context and ingredient forms

Subjective fullness, time until the next meal, and later food intake are different study outcomes.

Using this information

A food described as filling still needs a defined comparison and outcome. Fullness ratings alone do not establish long-term weight change.
