Investigation of How Morning Nutrition Influences Cognitive Performance
Completed · Not applicable
Conditions studied: Cognitive Performance
In brief
This project will assess the effects of the macro-nutrient make-up of morning food intake on cognitive performance using visual analog scale (VAS) measures, behavioral tests, and advanced high-density electrophysiological techniques (256-channel recordings). Two Isocaloric cereal products will be tested and compared to determine if measures of cognitive performance as well as satiety will change after consumption.
