Objective: This study investigated whether a dysphagia diet, such as a mousse diet, caused low diet intake with a deterioration of psychological status.
Methods: Eleven healthy females were divided into two groups: normal and mousse diet. Subjects ate these diets three times a day for three consecutive days. The changes over time in diet intake, dietary assessment, appetite, craving for a specific taste, and mood status were compared between the two groups.
Results: At almost all evaluation points, the diet intake and dietary assessment values were higher in the normal diet group than in the mousse diet group. The anger-hostility and fatigue-inertia measures of mood status temporarily differed significantly between the two groups; anger-hostility increased in the mousse diet group, while fatigue-inertia decreased in the normal diet group (p = 0.040, p = 0.041). Positive effectors of diet intake amount were the taste of the diet and a craving for sweet-tasting items before the meals (partial regression coefficients 0.798 and 0.207, p < 0.001 and p = 0.005, respectively), while appetite, mood status, and a craving for other specific tastes before the meals did not have a considerable effect on diet intake.
Conclusions: These results demonstrate that a mousse diet is one of the causes of low diet intake and mood fluctuation.
