Figure 4. Differences in total energy intake when diet beverages displace water.
Total energy intake (TEI) includes combined kcal from preload and test meal. Differences presented are %ΔTEI calculated as 100*(TEI(w/beverage)−TEI(w/water)) / TEI(w/water). Weighted averages of ΔTEI across multiple studies were computed as ΔTEIwa=∑(ΔTEI*N) ÷ ∑(N). All presented studies were included in weighted averages, regardless of significance.
