43. Satiety Suggestions - Control Hunger - Dr. David Perlmutter

Control weight by controlling hunger. Certain foods promote and maintain satiety. Dr. Perlmutter explains this concept and provides practical suggestions in this short video.
This is from the diet doctor:
How can you tell which are the most filling foods? As part of our satiety-based eating approach, we assign all foods a satiety score from 0 to 100.Show more

The score is calculated using four factors related to satiety:

1. Protein percentage: the percentage of a food’s calories that come from protein rather than fat and carbs. Protein is an essential nutrient that reduces hunger and helps you feel full. For this reason, protein percentage is given the most weight when calculating the satiety score.
2. Energy density: the calories (or energy) in a specific weight of food, such as 100 grams (3.5 ounces). Studies show that eating less-dense foods leads to eating fewer calories.
3. Fiber: the non-digestible portion of carbs that can stretch your stomach and help you feel full.
4. Hedonic factor: a score reduction for the decadent foods that can drive overeating.
