Satiating Power of Macronutrients

SATIATING Satiety comes from when you eat a

good meal and are full and satisfied This method is used to reduce between

meal snacking

MACRONUTRIENTS Proteins Carbohydrates Fats Fiber, calcium and proteins molecules

are harder for our bodies to breakdown It takes longer meaning we stay fuller

longer

PROTEINS Red meat, chicken, pork, nuts,

milk/dairy alternatives Larger molecules are harder for our

bodies to break down Gives us iron, glucose and other

molecules our bodies need to get active

WHOLE GRAINS No epidemiologic studies done between

refined and whole grain Surveys done show people who eat

more whole grains tend to be skinnier They have more fiber, harder to break

down, fuller longer Correlation is not causation

SOY BEANS Protein, fiber, vitamins and minerals Many macronutrient such as phosphorus Again lots of large molecules Other health benefits that help with

bacteria in your colon

CONCLUSION There have been no conclusive studies

done on the power of satiation and weight loss

Eating more means you stay fuller longer and reduces snacking

These were just a few of the foods mentioned on the site

It may work for some not for others due to body type and metabolism
