Condition(s) studied

Investigational drug(s) / intervention(s)

Test Leeds Food Preference Questionnaire (LFQP-France): The version of this questionnaire has been adapted to French eating habits. and based on the presentation of food photos, each representing one of the four categories below : salty-high in fat / salty-low fat / sugary-high fat / sweet-low fat The answers given to the LFQP predict a more or less caloric food intake. This tool makes it possible to objectify changes in eating behavior according to the nutritional status and protein status of patients. The implied wanting score for salty-high-fat, salty-low-fat, sweet-high-fat, and sweet-low-fat foods is calculated based on the frequency and speed of choice for one food type out of 150 combinations. For each of the food modalities, the software will return a score with its standard deviation. The modality preferred by the patient is the one with the highest score
