Appetite sensation scores. Subjective appetite sensations of hunger (a), prospective food intake (b), fullness (c), and satiety (d) after meals containing 15%E or 30%E protein with a sugar-sweetened beverage (SSB) or a non-nutritive-sweetened beverage (NNSB) are presented as area under the curve (AUC). Males reported feeling hungrier and that they could eat more food. Conversely, females reported greater feelings of fullness and satiety. Hunger and satiety AUC were lower after consuming a meal of 30%E protein. There was no significant main effect of beverage nor were there any sex, protein level or beverage type interactions. Items with similar letters are not significantly different. Data are presented as the mean ± SE
