People are always asking me how they can burn more fat, keep it off, and do it in a quick and easy fashion.
Want to know how I do it? It’s honestly really simple.
Here are the 4 primary foods to include in your diet that with SHUT DOWN HUNGER signals in your body (Not to mention, they will also increase your sense of satiety and fullness as well which is an added bonus).
1) Protein
Adding things like eggs, chicken, turkey, lean red meats, fish, plant based proteins, whey protein isolate powder will give you a large dose of protein.
Protein has the highest thermic effect of all macronutrients which means you will burn off 30% of the calories from protein during digestion, yet, protein turns off a major hunger hormone signal so you stay feeling full and satisfied longer while setting yourself up to burn more fat later during the day.
2) Healthy Fats
Adding things like egg yolks, almond butter, olive oil, coconut oil, almonds, walnuts, seeds, and MCT oils will give you a large dose of healthy fats. These forms of healthy fats will give you much longer steady sustainable energy, throughout the day teach your body to metabolize and burn fat over sugar/carbs, and also turn off a major hunger hormone signal in your body.
3) Greens/Veggies
Adding in foods like spinach, kale, arugula, bok choy, broccoli, asparagus, and green food powders will give you a large dose of the greens and veggies you need each day. These foods help with making sure you get all of your daily vitamins, minerals, and phytonutrients which help with hundreds of metabolic functions. When you consume large amounts of greens and veggies it fills up your stomach without causing you to feel bloated which turns off a major hunger hormone signal and does so without adding a ton of calories.
4) Fiber
Lastly, adding in fruits and veggies and foods high in fiber, or taking a fiber supplement will also help. When you have a high dose of fiber each day (ideally around 38g or more per day) it turns off a major hunger hormone signal and slows down the rate of absorption so the food you each leaves you feeling full and satisfied longer, while giving you longer lasting energy without the risk of overeating.
How You Can Add Them Into Your Diet (Example Meal Plan):
Breakfast (Smoothie):
1-2 Scoops Whey Protein Isolate or Plant Based Protein Powder
