After we eat, we want to feel satisfied, right? Not hungrier!

And there are foods you'll want to avoid. Or at least, eat them in combination with satisfying foods that leave you feeling full.

These foods that leave you feeling like you need more are easy to identify because they don't have the well- known satisfying ingredients in them.

And those satiating ingredients are...?
* FATS * FIBRE * PROTEIN.

Take fruit juice for example.
It  pretty much has no fat, fibre or protein.

Savoury biscuits?
They contain a little fiber but mostly it's carbs.
They won't satisfy your hunger unless you add some healthy fats such as avocado or ricotta.

Salads are great, especially in summer. They deliver a good serving of healthy fibre.
A salad will satisfy you for  much longer if you add a portion of protein like chickpeas, chicken, salmon or gammon.
Or you could add a healthy fat - and again think of the avocado.

Now what about yogurt?
It has plenty of fat and protein, but fiber?

Nope, it has none of that.

The fact you can swallow it without chewing tells you there's pretty much no fiber in it.
As a result this won't satisfy you for long.

BUT if you add some nuts or seeds or berries and it's a whole different story.

When choosing your yoghurt make sure you are choosing a low sugar variety that is full fat.​

Now what is a food that won't satisfy you.

It's usually white foods that have been processed like;
* white bread
* pasta
* pizza (it's that white flour again)
* sushi (not much fiber, not much protein)
* boxed commercial cereals

Why won't these foods satisfy you?

Because they have been processed and the fibre and important nutrients have been removed. 

When you eat these kinds of foods they get digested quickly and broken down in to glucose.

Glucose then enters the blood stream very quickly and that is not good for your body. 

As a result insulin is released which helps to move blood sugar out of your bloodstream and into the cells.

This creates a cycle of blood sugar high, insulin being released which leads to a drop in blood sugar and your energy levels which results in you reaching for another snack or food to increase your energy and so the cycle continues. 

What can you do?
Choose foods that contain FPF (Fat, Protein & Fibre)

Ask yourself when you are reaching for something to eat? 
​Does it contain FPF?
If not then you need to put that food down and find an alternative.
