carrots on

meal.

... Compared with the meal with carrot nutrients,
meals with whole
carrots and blended carrots resulted in significantly
(P<0.05) higher
satiety. There were significant (P<0.05) differences between
conditions in
intakes at the meal eaten ad libitum and for the remainder
of the day, and
intakes consistently decreased in the order: carrot
nutrients, blended
carrots, whole carrots, indicating that both fibre content
and structure
played a role in these effects.
