Science DiscussionsAt that time, a measurement was taken of energy intake (that is, the number of kilojoules, or calories, they consumed). The researchers found that the participants drinking skim milk in the morning consumed on average 2,432 kilojoules (581 calories) while those that drank fruit drink ate, on average, 2,658 kilojoules (635 calories) at lunch. The milk drinkers felt fuller and more satisfied at not being hungry during the morning and, and that satisfaction became more pronounced as the morning progressed over the four-hour period. Thus, the milk drinkers eat less food (less calories) at lunch than the fruit drinkers. In fact, the milk drinkers ate about 55 fewer calories (or nearly 9% less food) than the fruit drinkers at lunch.
