Loose Fat With Appetite Curbing Foods

By Conrad Bergman


Sometimes difficult to carry out, the theory behind losing weight is rather simple-- burn more calories than you take in. It is estimated that each 3500 calories represents one pound of body fat. To lose one pound a week, for example, you must eat 500 calories less per day than you are currently eating. Sadly, for the vast majority of people this is easier said than done.

The fact is that your bodies don't really need too many calories in order to survive. Scientists have discovered that the human body can go two to three weeks without food before it dies. The thing that makes reducing weight hard, on the other hand, is because our bodies will probably trick us straight into believing that we are starving, even when we're carrying around tons of extra excess body fat that can be metabolized right into energy.

Do not get me wrong -- appetite really does serve a reason. With an ideal-weight man or woman, being hungry is the signal to take in even more calories, as they definitely will very shortly be necessary to continue basic life functions. An overweight human being doesn't always might need all of these calories, though, and the urge for food mainly tricks us in to assuming that we do.

Certain foods we eat can actually suppress the appetite, make us feel fuller longer and, as a result, cause us to eat less.

Slim Down by eating Appetite Controlling Foods

As a general rule, foods high in fiber will make you feel fuller longer because their bulkiness will stretch the stomach and trigger the body's appetite suppression system. Apples, for example, are a great example of a fiber-rich food that makes us feel full. Oatmeal is also full of fiber and, even though it contains carbohydrates, those "good" carbs will help you feel less hungry. Nuts and seeks, like pine nuts and flax seeds, also trick the body into thinking we are fuller than we really are.

Although not necessarily a "food", simply drinking a full glass of water prior to a meal will suppress the appetite, take up room and result in a lower caloric intake. This is also true for green tea, because it is known that it triggers the production of a bodily hormone liable for appetite suppression and is also believed to at the same time improve metabolism.

And also, as a final point, those of you with a sweet tooth can be very happy to understand that dark chocolate serves as a wight lost aid because bitterness serves as a natural hunger suppressor.
