It turned out to have the hunger signal levels, ranging from very hungry, hungry, until slightly hungry. These are all used as a measure to control excessive appetite. But if we still difficult to distinguish between hunger, do not worry, use the clock as a measure.
Health experts say, usually the stomach will be empty 4 hours after the last time we ate. That means, we are permitted to eat meals every 4 hours. This method is even safe to apply to us who were dieting.If we wait until the stomach is completely empty, we will be more motivated to eat all food presented in front of the eyes, according to Dr. Pauline Endang, MS, SpGK, head of nutrition agencies Fatmawati Hospital. Not only that, when the stomach is completely empty, we become selective in choosing the type of food.Research in the UK are also prove, the number of workers who still want to chew on unhealthy snacks after lunch, tend to decline. This is compared with the number of workers who are driven to snack in the afternoon. “The pattern of eating every 4 hours can maintain stable blood sugar levels, while preventing the desire to eat too much,” said Kate Geagan, RD, a dietitian from the United States.
So from now on, whenever the hunger strike before the scheduled dinner arrives, prepare healthy snacks. Thus we can withstand hunger until mealtime arrives. Choose a handful of nuts with no salt and a plate of fruit.
Two types of foods that are rich in fiber and water so that the stomach remains satisfied with the amount of calories is not much. But remember, do not store snacks made ??of cheese or dried fruit in the desk drawer or in the bag. Make sure the snacks that we keep in the desk drawer was a kind of solid foods.
