What food is a natural appetite suppressant?

In a nutshell, experts say, adding more of these foods to your diet can help curb hunger and help you feel fuller on fewer calories: Soups, stews, cooked whole grains, and beans. Fruits and vegetables. Lean meats, fish, poultry, eggs. Whole grains, like popcorn.

High-Water, High-Fiber Foods Help Curb Hunger

Foods high in water and fiber, like fruits and vegetables, are the so-called high-volume foods. They add bulk to your meals and help fill your stomach. Researcher Barbara Rolls, PhD, and her colleagues at Pennsylvania State University have done extensive research on the "volumetric" theory of eating more low-calorie, high-volume foods. "We have found in numerous studies that when you allow people to eat as much as they want of foods that are high in volume yet low in density (calories), they eat less at the meal or during the day," says Rolls. Indeed, Consumer Reports magazine recently named Rolls' Volumetrics program as the best-researched diet plan. There are basically two simple volumetric strategies, says Rolls: "Eat a salad or bowl of broth- based soup before the meal to reduce intake at the meal; or reduce calorie density by increasing water, air, or fiber and take out a little fat -- but not so much that the dish loses it taste." How does it work? Foods containing water, air, or fiber have fewer calories than other foods and also cause the stomach to stretch and empty slowly. In addition, the simple act of seeing a large amount of food -- like a big salad -- can help you feel more satisfied. The best part is that choosing foods low in caloric density helps you shed pounds without feeling like you're on a restrictive diet.
