Personally, hunger shifts my attention away from “junk” food (like pizza and chips) and low-calorie “healthy” food (salads) to high-calorie “healthy” food, like nut butter and greek yogurt or fatty meat. But maybe this is affected by conscious bias, since most people online say protein is the most satiating.
- nandomrumber 2y agoI call this intuitive eating. You're hungry and you feel like carrot sticks with, say, a honey-soy-sauce-tahini based dip, maybe some beetroot hummus <- that's intuitive eating. OR whatever wholesome foods one may prefer at any given time. You're hungry and you feel like a chocolate bat <- somethings probably misaligned. Regarding satiation, I tend not to agree with the idea that we're all different. There's eight billion of us, we must have something in common. Having said that, different people are going to find different ratios of the macronutrients more or less satisfying at different times, both proximal and through the human lifecycle.
- watwut 2y agoIn the case of an actual hunger and lack of calories, carrots are mostly useless while chocolate bar provides those. Even better would be complex sacharids and full meal ... but intuitive eating does not imply you will never each chocolate or sugar. It does not mean you will eat like person with an eating disorder either.
