Full description
The study is separated into two parts: A) investigating the effects of artificial sweeteners in combination with complex carbohydrates; and B) investigating the effects of artificial sweeteners in combination with simple sugars.

Blood glucose measurements will be obtained through finger pricking and appetite will be measured using self-reported visual analog scores rating hunger, desire to eat, fullness and alertness for up to 3 hours after breakfast.
B)Participants will be randomly given either the placebo drink (3g of Lyle's Golden syrup and 3g of maltodextrin dissolved in 250ml of water) or the Canderel+sugars drink (3g of Canderel and 3g of Lyle's Golden syrup dissolved in 250ml of water) .
