    Clark MJ, Slavin JL

    Key Findings

    Only 39 percent of fiber interventions increased satiety and 22 percent reduced food intake; effects varied strongly by fiber type.

    Conclusions

    Fiber effects on appetite are inconsistent and depend on viscosity and fermentability.

    Limitations

    Heterogeneous fiber types, mostly acute studies.
