UK based Institute of Food Research has developed a revolutionary new product: a food additive based on oilve oil that will keep you feeling full for up to 12 hours.

The current product is consumed via mixed with milk shake, and it has been shown that the subjects felt full for up to 12 hours. The research is being continued to see if this additive will have the same affect on other foods as well. The researchers mixed a combination of olive oil, water, and Tween 60 or Span 80. Tween 60 and Span 80 are polysobates, a class of emulsifiers used in food preparation. Then they mixed it with coffee flavor and gave the shakes to 11 subjects and checked their satiety level every hour. The result was that the mixture that contained Tween 60 lasted longer in the stomach therefore giving feeling of satiety. This is based on a logic that although water is absorbed fast from the stomach, it remains longer in the stomach if it is mixed with oil.
