Figure 2. Mean dry food intake (g/day) during a two-hour period after food inclusion for baseline, restriction and diet choice.

The diet choice period is the combined intake for high fat, protein and carbohydrate diets. Standard error bars are shown. Gorging mice ate an average of 51.6% ± 5.98% of their total food intake in 2 h during restriction, non-gorgers ate 15.8% ± 1.98%, while controls only ate 1.5 ± 0.33%. Gorging behaviour did not continue after restriction.
