|---|---|
| Overweight is one of the main health problems associated with food habits, and has been associated with decreasing levels of wellbeing. Determining the influence of foods on people's perceived wellbeing could help understanding food choices, and therefore promoting healthy habits. The aim of the present study was to investigate the influence of a gastronomically improved menu on consumers' perceived wellbeing. Two weight loss diet menus were designed with the same ingredients and caloric content; one of them was a traditional menu, and the other one was gastronomically improved: appearance, textures, and flavors were enhanced. Both menus were tasted in a real context by 71 women who had been on a weight loss diet during the last year. Consumers attended the study two different days during consecutive weeks. Participants rated liking and perceived wellbeing after the consumption of each menu. The gastronomic improvement of the meal increased liking scores and perceived wellbeing of consumers, particularly in the emotional, social and spiritual dimensions | |
