Obesity
Glucose, Whey Protein and Time to the Next Meal on Mealtime Food Intake in Children
The investigators hypothesize that glucose and whey protein given 30 and 60 min before a pizza meal will exert different effects on food intake in adolescent children, and will depend on pubertal stage.

Postprandial Hyperglycemia
Is Mid-morning Breakfast as Healthy as Early-morning Breakfast for Blood Sugar Control in Adolescent Girls?
