Official title

Does Substitution of Meat Products With White Button Mushrooms Have Potential for Weight Reduction? Studies of the Level of Short and Intermediate-term Caloric Compensation, Satiety, and Dietary Satisfaction Among Lean and Obese Men and Women.

Brief summary

Reproduced verbatim from the official ClinicalTrials.gov record. Not medical advice.

Unfortunately, current methods of achieving weight control are disappointing. There is also a great deal of public confusion over what constitutes an appropriate diet for weight control; there is a paucity of carefully performed, randomized, controlled clinical treatment trials to evaluate the varying opinions. Mushrooms are not widely appreciated as the nutritious, low calorie, low fat food (and potential meat substitute) that they are. Mushrooms may be a new "diet food," especially as a substitute for higher calorie and fat staples like meat. This study examines whether there is compensation for the potential calorie and fat savings of substituting mushrooms for meat in dishes over a 4-day period.
