What can someone who usually feels hungry even after taking a meal do?
Greetings to all.
It happens that even if you have eaten a large plate of food you are hungry or after a few minutes you feel that feeling of wanting more?
Let's see what happens and what happens and what we can do.
The first thing I recommend is that you self-evaluate yourself in the following way:
Recognize everything you do during the day (daily), both physical and mental activity.
If you are a very active person, fitnes who does a lot of physical activity, your body will demand more food daily than you would consume in a normal routine; So if you do not eat enough for this rhythm, your body will quickly consume what you eat and ask for more food sooner than usual.
You do not have to be fitnes, having a hectic life, either at work or in other occupations will also demand more energy that is reflected in more food.
Mental activity; this is not only physical exercise demands energy, in fact have a high mental activity, use a lot of the brain, demand as much or even more energy than physical activity.
The brain as glucose (which can come from food or fat reserves) so studying a lot may also require eating more than normal.
If you consider that you have a calmer life; I then move on to the recognition of the diet.
Recognize what you eat all day (daily) in hours you eat and how many times, in addition to the quantities.
If you do not eat enough for what your body demands, you will be hungry at every moment.
If you have poor nutrition it is very likely that you will feel unfulfilled after eating.
It is important to know which foods produce the most satiety in us:
Foods rich in fibers such as fruits and vegetables. The fiber is of vegetable origin and help to satiate the body when it is ingested.
It is also important to eat enough protein, since these are the main nutrients for the body, if you do not eat enough protein your body will not have energy. The protein is obtained from a variety of foods but the most important are those of animal origin, since its protein is essential for us.
How many times do we eat and at what times?
Many people believe that they need it with 3 meals a day. Error! They are more, at least 5 meals minimum. Why? Have you done fasting when you will do blood tests? It is the same, the body goes into a fast when it has time without eating, this causes the energy reserves of the body to be consumed.
It is advisable to eat several 5 or 6 times a day. Breakfast, lunch and dinner, and intermediate meals between these; thus the body will not feel that it will enter fasting.
It does not mean that in the middle dishes should be equal to the main dishes; they can be simply snacks, snacks, snacks, etc.
If you still feel the need to continue eating I recommend that you drink a glass of water before and after each meal, as they say in the other answers. I also use that method and it dampens a bit.
But if it is more serious, it is a matter of going to a nutritional specialist or doctor to evaluate if it is not a pathology.
conclusion
-If you have an active life (physical and / or mental) double the food rations.
-Improves your diet / nutrition (eat foods rich in fibers and proteins)
-Come the necessary times in the course of the day, without abusing the quantities according to your requirements.
Much of this I say from my own experience or knowledge in my studies. Greetings and success
