Foods carrying high protein are not only nutrient dense but also a lot more filling. In diets where protein represented 30% of calorie intake, this protein density influenced people to automatically drop their calorie intake by 441 calories per day, which is a huge amount.
Eat Enough Fats
When we eat fat, a hormone called leptin is released from our fat cells. This is a good thing when we’re talking about MODERATE amounts of fat. A lack of leptin (due to a very low-fat diet) can trigger a huge appetite.
