Rye products are known to be more effective in maintaining satiety compared to other foods such as wheat products. Tests conducted by the VTT Technical Research Centre of Finland indicate that the structure of the rye food also makes a big difference: porous, moisture-absorbent rye breads and puffs are particularly effective in maintaining satiety.

The results of the study were published in the journal Food Quality and Preference. Reference: Pentikäinen, S., Sozer, N., Närväinen, J., Sipilä, K., Alam, S.
