Greater Satiety with Whole Grain Rye

Researchers at the Swedish University of Agricultural Sciences carried out two cross-over studies in which subjects were asked to rate their hunger, satiety, and desire to eat during an eight-hour period following consumption of various isocaloric grain foods at breakfast.  All forms of whole rye – rye bread with milled or whole kernels, and milled rye porridge – provided greater satiety than the control refined wheat bread, but the unmilled kernels held hunger at bay the longest.
