Energy intake and diet composition from solid foods, sweetened beverages, and overall during each dietary period in study A¹

	Fructose (n = 9)	Glucose (n = 9)	Aspartame (n = 9)	P-diet2
Solid foods (ad libitum)
Energy intake, kcal/d	2180 ± 520	2120 ± 595	2220 ± 637	0.224
Energy intake, % of estimated energy requirements	97 ± 9.5	94 ± 12	99 ± 15	0.213
Protein, % of total energy intake	13.4 ± 0.73a	13.8 ± 0.83a	16.3 ± 0.50b	<0.001
Fat, % of total energy intake	24.4 ± 2.8a	24.2 ± 2.7a	29.3 ± 3.2b	<0.001
Carbohydrate, % of total energy intake	42.8 ± 2.1a	42.2 ± 2.4a	50.4 ± 2.9b	<0.001
Sweetened beverages (mandatory)
Energy intake, kcal/d	515 ± 92	509 ± 92	85 ± 153

Glucose, % of total energy intake	0	19.8 ± 2.1	0
Overall energy intake
Energy intake, kcal/d	2698 ± 607a	2629 ± 682a	2307 ± 651b	<0.001
Energy intake, % of estimated energy requirement	120 ± 9.6a	117 ± 12a	102 ± 15b	<0.001
Energy intake, % relative to aspartame phase	119 ± 11a	115 ± 8.4a	100 ± 0b	<0.001

¹Values are means ± SDs. Values in the same row with different superscript letters are significantly different from each other, P < 0.05 (post hoc paired t tests).

²Reflects an overall comparison of the 3 dietary phases by repeated-measures ANOVA. No statistical tests were performed on sweetened-beverage intake, because these were designed to be different.

³Calories from beverages in the aspartame phase provided by carbohydrate fillers included in the sweetener.
