OBJECTIVE: To test the hypotheses that beverages may foster weaker sensory-metabolic learning consistent with evidence of less precise energy intake compensation for beverages vs solid food, and that lean individuals more precisely adjust to varying energy loads than overweight/obese individuals due to stronger food form-energy learning.

OBJECTIVE: To assess the impact of consuming low-fat flavoured milk at levels of dairy consumption recommended by the Dietary Guidelines for Americans (2010) as part of a hypocaloric diet on dietary quality and weight loss.
A secondary goal was to assess any differences between HFCS and sucrose at levels up to the 50th percentile consumption level of fructose in the American diet.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the association between frequency of SSB consumption and caries increment over 4 years in adults, and to explore whether the association between frequency of SSB consumption and caries increment varied by socio-demographic characteristics and use of fluoride toothpaste.

OBJECTIVE: To determine the influence of baseline adipocyte size on depot-specific fat expansion and the development of insulin resistance using a prospective design.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the diet and physical activity of healthy controls and of patients with NAFLD vs current recommendations.
OBJECTIVE: To explore the impact of ‘nutritional labelling’ on consumption of a snack food in a general population including those of lower socioeconomic status (SES), and to test whether consumption is moderated by BMI and weight concern and if there are any modifying effects of SES.
OBJECTIVE: To compare the intake of total sugars, foods and drinks rich in added sugar and energy intake (EI) in children’s diets on weekdays (Monday to Thursday), Fridays and weekends.

OBJECTIVE: To review what children aged 2 to 11 years in the USA are reportedly eating, explore trends in food and nutrient intakes, examine the impact of federal nutrition programs on child nutrition, discuss current dietary recommendations and guidelines for physical activities, and provide specific recommendations and sources of science-based nutrition messages for food and nutrition practitioners to improve the nutritional well-being of children.
