dc.description.abstractThe effect of drinking habitual concentration of black tea or habitual consumption of red pepper on appetite and food intake of children remains unknown. The obwctive of this study was to determine the role of habitually consumed bl<lck tea or berbefc -spiced food on the appetite and energy intake of children less than five years of aBf' in an orph<lnage in Ethiopia. With•in subject crossover design was used to which 21 preschool children (24- 54 months) PiHticipated. The effect of black tea or berbere-spiced food on energy intake and appetite was investigated by evaluating intake of the test meats. Anthropometric measurements, caffeme and ca l echin analysis in tea, and proximate composition of the test meals were also deterrnined . Al thoul1h fewer children (n= 5) had anthropometric values of <~ 2 SD, more than half of the ch ildren were at the border of Z score for stunting, underweight, and wasting. The con sumption of habit llal co ncentrations of black tea had no significant effect on satiation (P=O.07) and satiety (P=O.22) Similarly, the consumption of berbere-spiced foods had no significant effect on sat iation (P=O.55). This suggests that both the consumption of berbere-spiced foods and black tea had no effect on food/energy intake (P> 0.05) . In contrast, increasing portion size had a significant effect on appetite and energy intake (P< 0.001). Therefore age-dependent increase in portion size may be required to improve the nutritional status of the children.
