Consumption with Large Sip Sizes Increases Food Intake and Leads to Underestimation of the Amount Consumed

Abstract

Consumption with large sips led to higher food intake, as expected. Large sips, that were either fixed or chosen by subjects themselves led to underestimations of the amount consumed. This may be a risk factor for over-consumption. Reducing sip or bite sizes may successfully lower food intake, even in a distracted state.
