Unrestrainable appetite has a natural answer: dietary fat.
Food cravings, hunger pangs, insatiable demands to scarf things: that's often the dark side of an insulin cycle where carbohydrates play a determinative role. But barring issues better treated with psychiatry, most people aren't going to feel the urge to snack after eating a soup-bowl worth of butter...
Its mildly nauseating to eat too much fat. Eliminating insulin spikes makes appetite control 100 times easier. Every body is different, but if you might want to consider a (low carb) high-fat diet for a while.
Also: eating once a day is a bad habit unless you're working things correctly. Maybe check out the "OMAD" (one meal a day), types to see how they're eating? High fat generally plays a role there, too, for satiation and energy reserves.
- AnIdiotOnTheNet 8y agoUgh. Internet know-it-all parrots some keto bullshit, film at 11. I have eaten entire 24 ounce jars of peanut butter in one sitting, blocks of cheese, cans of nuts, whatever. It doesn't matter what I'm eating at all. It is endlessly irritating that people like you keep insisting you know more about how my body works than I do.
- bonesss 8y agoThe reason "people" keep telling you the same thing for the same problem is because you're either describing a treatable mental condition unrelated to nutrition or totally talking out your neck... Dietary fat causing satiation is hardly "internet know-it-all" and has anything to do with keto in an of itself. The keto diet does encourage other dietary habits that enhance and strengthen the satiation of those goods fats to control and mollify the specific appetite problem you are discussing. It's a system of effects that specifically addresses that urge (https://paleoleap.com/dietary-fat-and-satiety/ https://paleoleap.com/dietary-fat-and-satiety/). Not a single example you have retorted with points to anything other than poor blood sugar regulation, poor dietary habits, and insufficient fat in your standard diet (which is totally different than binging on something fatty, in the presence of your admittedly poor diet). You are Doing It Wrong. A whole thing of peanut butter is not going to avoid the insulin spikes. A whole thing of nuts is not sufficient by itself and likely were nuts with the wrong macros. Cheese is nice, but single source foods are not how you should be eating as a grown up, and that habit is causing the problems (says you). "It doesn't matter what I'm eating at all" contradicts observable research in every aspect of medicine, basic biology, and the standard model. You're whining from ignorance.
