The emphasis on slowing eating as a strategy hints at a meaningful impact on dietary habits and weight management recommendations, though not deeply explored.

Abstract in brief

  • Slower eating reduces energy intake in normal-weight individuals but not significantly in overweight or obese subjects, although it still lowers eating rate and energy density in both groups.
  • Eating speed influences hunger and fullness sensations, with slower eating leading to less hunger and more fullness in normal-weight subjects.
  • The study suggests that slowing down eating can be an effective strategy to reduce calorie intake for normal-weight individuals, but its effect is less clear for those who are overweight or obese.]
