Trial Design

2Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Obese malesExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
This is a randomized, two-period, cross over design with the intervention of consuming breakfast versus fasting for breakfast to study the effects on hormone responses and cognitive function using CTET in lean and obese male adolescents. These two study groups will be randomized to one of two orders:: (A,B) or (B,A) where A = Yes breakfast and B=No breakfast
Group II: Lean malesExperimental Treatment2 Interventions
This is a randomized, two-period, cross over design with the intervention of consuming breakfast versus fasting for breakfast to study the effects on hormone responses and cognitive function using CTET in lean and obese male adolescents. These two study groups will be randomized to one of two orders:: (A,B) or (B,A) where A = Yes breakfast and B=No breakfast
