Moreover, eating rate correlates significantly with expected satiation.
Altering portion sizes and eating rate to attenuate gorging during a fast food meal: effects on energy intake.
We investigated the effect of portion size on bite size, eating rate, deceleration rate, and meal duration.
At 27 weeks of age the effect of CP level during rearing on eating rate had disappeared.
To understand these relationships, we have developed a measure of "eating topography" (e.g., eating rate, inter-bite interval, and bite size).
Few studies have examined whether it is possible to reduce eating rate and food intake by increasing the texture of realistic meal components.
A factor related to the effects described in the previous section is eating rate, which is typically fast in the obese, and may provide insufficient time for the full effect of satiety signals as food reaches the intestine to operate.
After the meal, the eating data are fitted to a polynomial, and the computer calculates the amount of food eaten, time of consumption, eating rate (initial and total), and rate of deceleration.
The use of microstructural techniques based around the universal eating monitor approach allows discussion of the added value of collecting information on meal duration, eating rate, bite size etc.
The transit time in the oral cavity and the number of bites or sips per gram (inversely related to bite or sip size) are main contributors that affect eating rate.
A recent review article in the American Journal of Clinical Nutrition looked at 22 studies that experimentally manipulated eating rate and measured food intake, hunger, or both.
