Abstract in brief

  • A high-protein breakfast, such as eggs, helps obese Chinese adolescents lose weight by decreasing their subsequent food intake and increasing feelings of fullness, linked to higher levels of appetite-regulating hormones like PYY and GLP-1.
  • The study found that adolescents who ate an egg breakfast showed reduced body weight and appetite, along with elevated satiety hormones, compared to those who had steamed bread.
  • There is a strong connection between the intake of a protein-rich breakfast, hormonal regulation, reduced appetite, and weight loss, suggesting that high-protein breakfasts can be an effective strategy for managing obesity in this population.
