Important Facts about Hunger, Nutrition & Feeling Satisfied
- When eating a fresh whole food diet, you will feel satisfied after eating a meal without feeling bloated or uncomfortable. It is the level of nutritional value that is in the meal that is the true indication as to how long this feeling of satisfaction will last. It should last for a minimum of 2 – 2/12 hours and when it comes to your bedtime this is different. As you don’t necessarily want to go to bed on a full stomach.
- By having an understanding of how much to eat, what to eat and portion sizes this will help with the level of satisfying your hunger. An example of this is that when you eat a meal with a healthy amount of protein, [animal protein to be the size of the palm of your hand], 4 – 5 vegetables and or salad, then your body will feel satisfied for longer. What will upset this equilibrium is if you mix your proteins with dairy, cheese will make digestion difficult as will commercially made sauces. If your meat protein is too large: as mentioned meat protein should only be the size of the palm of your hand. The rest of your plate should be made up with vegetables such as sweet potato, pumpkin, kale, parsnips, peas, corn etc.
- The level of feeling satisfied after eating a meal is controlled by a number of factors. Beginning with how you are thinking about how much you need to eat to feel full. It is also about the timing of when a food or drink is consumed. How the food enters the gut and is digested and absorbed. The first process being chewing. The slower you eat your food, the more effective you chew your food, assists the digestive processes improving the feeling of satisfaction. As this signals specific areas of the brain in response to the expansion of the stomach, your sensory responses. This improves the brain’s perceptions of the food and drink consumed.
- Hormonal signals are released in response to the digestion and absorption of nutrients. There are also hormones that tell the brain how much fat you have stored in the body, which affect your feeling of satisfaction over the longer term. These signals are integrated in areas of the brain involved in the regulation of energy intake, which lead to the feeling of satiety. You may well feel the stomach filling as you eat. However it can take up 15-20 minutes after food is first eaten, for you to feel the whole range of satisfied signals to reach the brain, saying that you have had enough to eat.
- Despite all the knowledge about managing your diet and eating habits, people will still tend to eat when they are not hungry. To refrain from eating when you are not hungry will provide additional benefit to your overall health, improve your energy levels, your body’s ability to health and help with maintaining a healthy weight.
