You may experience hunger for 3 main reasons:
Not enough calories (energy in your food)
Not enough nutrition (macro and micro nutrients, your essential fats and proteins, vitamins and minerals)
Spikes in your blood sugar.
There are more things, that influence your hunger, but these ones are the biggest.
How to address them?
Build your meals around foods that:
Give you enough energy – most people are getting way more calories than they need, way more calories than vitamins and minerals that the body actually craves.
Provide volume in your stomach – fiber and water in whole foods do the trick, think vegetables, greens, those are the best foods to build volume, providing a lot of nutrition at the same time, AND they also assist in keeping your blood sugar stable, that is very important for you hunger-free life.
Provide your essential micro-macro nutrients, your essential fats (think fatty fish, think egg yolks, think nuts and seeds, think avocados and olives, olive oil), your essential amino acids or proteins (think wild fish, think eggs, think grass-fed beef), you micro nutrients, vitamins and minerals (think green and colorful vegetables).
So how does it apply to your meals exactly?
Make sure to stop eating foods, that spike your blood sugar, like any kind of added sugars, like processed grains products, breads and pastries etc, fake-“healthy” energy bars that are actually just a fancy candy, dried fruits and tropical high-carb fruits like bananas.
Build your meals around healthy fats, proteins and vegetables, I mentioned above.
Eggs with veggies for breakfast maybe, or bulletproof coffee and no breakfast.
Fish or meat with veggies for lunch and dinner in all sorts of variations.
