Hey folks, Board-Certified Health Coach, and Primal Health Coach Institute's Coaching Director, Erin Power is here to answer your questions about satiating hunger and tracking food. If you're looking for skillful, caring guidance we've got strategies, tips, and support. Have a question you'd like to ask our health coaches? Leave it below in the comments or over in the Mark's Daily Apple Facebook group. Satiating hunger Tamara asked: "What's the best way to stop feeling hungry between meals? I depend on snacks to get me through." Ah, hunger and snacking. You're not alone with this question, Tamara. You know, I think one of the reasons we reach for snacks is…because we're hungry. That may sound funny, but I'm being serious. Sure, many folks snack out of stress, boredom, or emotional eating. But I've helped many coaching clients cure that sort of mindless eating simply by helping them go through life more well-fed. Now, to be clear, there are certain foods and lifestyle factors that mess with our hormonal and other signaling systems. A diet high in processed carbs and sweets tends to interfere with our natural, healthy hunger and satiation signals. It also causes our body to revolt against the constant insulin bath triggered by MORE carbs, MORE sugar, and frequent snacking. Similarly, lack of sleep and chronic stress and anxiety mess with our hormones and can throw hunger signals way out of whack. But if you're eating a Primal diet featuring an abundance of real, whole, minimally processed food, including high-quality protein and healthy fats, you're well on your way to being in touch with true hunger and minimizing the need (or desire) for snacking. However, if you're eating Primal most of the time and still feeling hungry throughout the day, I've got a fairly dependable solution: more protein. Here's the thing: Your hunger comes from your cells, and your cells require nourishment. Specifically, they need: Fuel (calories to provide energy for your body and brain) Building blocks (amino acids and essential fatty acids that help your body continuously build and repair itself) Information (minerals, vitamins, cholesterol, prebiotic fibres, etc.—all of which have incredibly important and nuanced roles in bodily function) When your cells ask for food (i.e., you feel hungry), it's to satisfy these needs. If cells aren't getting these needs met, they are undernourished and cry out for more nourishment. Now, of course, every body is different, and people bring different health conditions, life circumstances, and goals to the table. That said, if we are to generalize, there's an easy way to give your cells and body more of the calories, building blocks, and information they're asking for: eat more protein. As one of the most nutrient dense "human foods" on planet earth, it ticks all of the boxes in terms of the nourishment our cells are asking for. How much more protein? MORE. Rather than get caught up in measuring and micromanaging, keep things simple: just aim for more, and see how it goes. Time and … Continue reading "Ask a Health Coach: How Do I Stop Snacking?
