The hypothesis is that intake of liquid carbohydrates is not compensated sufficiently by reducing caloric consumption from other foods. This leads to incomplete compensation for the energy ingested and eventually results in weight gain.

Achtergrond van het onderzoek
Obesity results from an imbalance between energy intake and energy expenditure. There is much speculation about foods that are particularly fattening, and sugary drinks are seen as major culprits. It is hypothesized that a high intake of calories from sugary drinks would not be compensated for by reduced food intake at subsequent meals. As a result body weight would increase. In this double-blind, long term, randomized controlled trial the effect of replacing sugar-containing beverages by low-sugar alternatives on body weight and fat mass in children will be investigated.
Doel van het onderzoek
The hypothesis is that intake of liquid carbohydrates is not compensated sufficiently by reducing caloric consumption from other foods. This leads to incomplete compensation for the energy ingested and eventually results in weight gain.
Onderzoeksopzet
0, 6, 12 and 18 months.

1. Intervention 1: 250 mL per day of sugar-containing lemonade;
2. Intervention 2: 250 mL per day of lemonade low in sugar. The low-sugar drinks are sweetened with artificial sweeteners.
The intervention will take 18 months.
