Study Summary

Overconsumption of carbohydrates has been implicated as a cause of significant public health problems including obesity and diabetes. The most effective approach to alter dietary pattern and improve public health is unknown. Gradual and abrupt changes in dietary pattern have been tried in small, uncontrolled trials, but it is not clear which approach is most effective. The primary objective of this study is to evaluate different approaches to changing dietary pattern for altering flavor perception in foods and beverages and for altering preference for flavor.

Primary Outcome

Rating taste intensity from barely detectable to strong using a general labeled magnitude scale. The name of the scale is the general labeled magnitude scale. The value of the response is recorded on the scale as "barely detectable", "weak", "moderate, strong", "very strong", and "strongest imaginable sensation of any kind." None of these responses is considered better or worse than any other.
