	abstract = {Objective: To investigate the effect of OlibraTM fat emulsion on medium-term food intake and appetite in non-obese subjects. Design: The study was of a double-blind, placebo-controlled, within-subject crossover design. Twenty-eight subjects (14 male, 14 female) were randomly assigned to receive either a 200g portion of test (5g of OlibraTM fat) or control (5g of milk fat) yoghurt for breakfast for 2 x 3 week {\textquoteright}study{\textquoteright} phases, separated by a 3-week {\textquoteright}wash-out{\textquoteright} phase. On days 1, 8 and 22 of the study phases, food intake 4h post-consumption of the yoghurt was assessed by pre and post-covert weighing at an ad libitum buffet-style lunch. Throughout each of these study days, appetite was assessed using visual analogue scales (VAS) at regular intervals. For the remainder of the study days, and the following 24 h ({\textquoteright}post-study days{\textquoteright}), subjects reported their food intake using weighed dietary records. Results: Consumption of the OlibraTM emulsion had no significant effect on mean energy, macronutrient or amounts of food consumed at the lunch 4 h post-consumption. Self-reported food intakes indicated that there was no significant effect of the emulsion on energy intakes for the remainder of each study day and post-study days. There was considerable individual variation in food intakes following consumption of the OlibraTM emulsion, with 46\%, 59\% and 57\% of subjects reducing their energy intakes at lunch on days 1, 8 and 22. There was no consistent effect of the emulsion on appetite ratings.},
