Appetite control and nutrition -
Yogurt is a good candidate for a food with the potential to help manage appetite and body weight under free-living conditions. Indeed, yogurt is a nutrient-dense food that generally has a low energy density.
It also offers flexibility in that it can be consumed daily at any meal or as a snack. As described here, yogurt is a satiating food that may favorably influence energy balance and body composition.
The most consistent evidence to demonstrate that yogurt may favorably influence weight management has been reported by Zemel et al.
Recent population data add evidence to support the idea that regular yogurt consumption promotes body weight stability. A study of large cohorts of participants revealed that yogurt and nuts were the food groups for which consumption was associated with the greatest weight loss over a 4-year follow-up period.
This concept is supported by the observation that a high intake of calcium, most of which is provided by dairy foods, was found to be negatively related to the consumption of carbonated and other sweetened beverages.
More recently, Chapelot and Payen 8 examined the effects of isocaloric portions of liquid yogurt and chocolate bars on appetite sensations. Their results showed that yogurt consumption resulted in a more pronounced effect on hunger, the desire to eat, and feelings of fullness. However, these beneficial effects of yogurt on appetite sensations were not accompanied by significant delays in requesting the next meal or a reduction in ad libitum energy intake at the subsequent meal.
These effects are related to carbohydrate, lipid, protein, and energy metabolism and have led to the formulation of classic theories of appetite control.
More recently, Tordoff 9 proposed the existence of a calcium-specific appetite control mechanism by referring to the numerous physiological functions of calcium in vertebrates and to the fact that calcium deficiency promotes a preferential calcium intake in animals when the opportunity is given.
This is in agreement with clinical experience in obese, female, very-low—calcium consumers who were tested in the context of a week, diet-based, weight-reduction program with or without calcium and vitamin D supplementation. Accordingly, a highly significant correlation was found between low fat intakes associated with the supplements and reductions in body weight and body fat during the program.
Adapted from Major et al. Beyond the potential impact of low calcium intake on appetite control, other biological mechanisms may explain the influence of calcium on energy balance. According to Zemel et al. The resulting decrease in fat mobilization reduces fat utilization, which is concordant with the findings of Melanson et al.
Although the role of calcium in the regulation of energy and fat balance has been demonstrated consistently, it is relevant to emphasize that many clinical trials have not shown a body weight-reducing effect of dairy or calcium intake. Taken together, these observations suggest that calcium supplementation is effective for augmenting weight loss in obese individuals whose consumption of the mineral is inadequate.
This is concordant with the clinical trials of Zemel et al. Vitamin D is another dairy nutrient that has been considered for its potential independent effects on body weight. However, Soares et al. Proteins are another nutrient in dairy foods that can induce a satiating effect.
In milk, casein and whey protein represent the main protein components. They differ in terms of absorption rates and post-absorptive responses, which can influence their satiating properties. Whey protein is known to be more readily absorbed than casein, 18 which may explain its short-term effect on reducing appetite sensations and energy intake.
For instance, in the study by Akhavan et al. Casein forms a clot via gastric acid action 20 , 21 that slows gastric emptying and mediates a sustained release of amino acids. Douglas et al. Specifically, they evaluated the impact of yogurts that contained different levels of protein on appetite markers and energy intake.
They found that in healthy women, an afternoon snack of Greek yogurt with a high protein content 24 g reduced hunger, increased fullness, and delayed subsequent eating compared with lower protein snacks or no snacks.
Although the energy consumed at dinner was lower following the kcal energy content of the yogurt snack vs no snack, energy intake was not fully compensated. To summarize, evidence suggests that the high calcium and protein contents of yogurt and other dairy foods may explain, at least in part, the ability of yogurt to influence appetite and energy intake.
This is corroborated by results of a recent clinical trial that demonstrated that milk supplementation facilitates appetite control during weight loss compared with an isocaloric, calcium-free, reduced-protein soy milk supplementation.
Dairy intake influences gastrointestinal hormones in a manner that is compatible with a hunger-reducing effect. Human studies have shown that milk and yogurt intake increase the circulating concentration of the anorectic peptides Glucagon-like peptide GLP -1 and Peptide YY PYY.
Jones et al. The use of a meal test before and after each condition demonstrated that a high dairy intake resulted in greater levels of PYY for several hours after the meal was ingested.
Plasma ghrelin concentrations also have been measured in obese, low-calcium consumers exposed to a diet-based, weight-reducing program that was supplemented with milk or an isoenergetic placebo. In agreement with the above evidence, those in the supplemented group experienced decreases in the orexigenic hormone and a smaller increase in hunger and the desire to eat compared with those in the placebo groups.
The concept of the food matrix refers to differences in food structure that can modify properties of a food, independent of its nutrient content. The structure of yogurt lends itself to accommodate changes that affect appetite and food intake, such as the addition of fiber.
Recently, Lluch et al. Specifically, a control yogurt was supplemented with protein and the food matrix was modified to accommodate a fiber supplement.
These modifications in the food matrix resulted in significant decreases in both subjective appetite and subsequent energy intake. Interestingly, these modifications did not affect palatability.
The study was then expanded to test the effects of variations in the protein structure of yogurt and the addition of fibers to the food matrix. Variations in protein structure were tested based on the findings of preliminary laboratory work that allowed the comparison of isocaloric-, isovolumetric-, and isoproteinemic yogurts in which the whey protein-to-casein ratios were doubled.
The main hypothesis was that the increase in the relative content of whey protein in a yogurt served at snack time would exert a more pronounced effect on the reduction of ad libitum energy intake at lunchtime.
Preliminary results showed that mean energy intake at lunch was significantly decreased following consumption of yogurt high in whey and protein, which may be explained by the fact that this protein is more rapidly digested than casein.
Tsuchiya et al. This is relevant in the study of obesity, as it appears there are differences between lean and obese humans in the composition of their gut microbiota.
Recent research offers unique perspectives regarding the use of probiotics in the management of obesity. Yogurt represents an ideal food vehicle for the incorporation of probiotics that can reinforce the microbiota and favorably modify its composition.
For instance, Kadooka et al. Recently, a placebo-controlled, double-blind, crossover clinical study reported that consumption of 2 servings per day of yogurt supplemented with Lactobacillus amylovorus 10 9 colony-forming units per serving of yogurt during 43 days led to a decrease in total body fat mass.
A clinical trial was recently completed in which obese men and women adhered to a diet-based, week weight loss program followed by 12 weeks of weight maintenance. rhamnosus CGMCC1. In men, changes in body weight and fat were comparable in the weight-loss and the weight-maintenance phases of the program.
This contrasts with results obtained in women in whom the probiotic supplementation accentuated body weight and fat loss in the 2 phases. Accordingly, the data indicated that energy intake tended to be reduced more in women given the probiotic supplements.
Furthermore, results demonstrated that the abundance of Lachnospiraceae , a strain of the Firmicutes family, was significantly decreased in the women who were supplemented compared with the women in the control group. Mean reductions in body weight, fat, and energy in obese women subjected to week dietary restriction with or without probiotic supplementation with Lactobacillus rhamnosus CGMCC1.
Adapted from Sanchez et al. The available relevant literature suggests that yogurt facilitates the regulation of energy balance. This can be explained by the fact that yogurt consumption may reduce the intake of energy-dense foods that favor hyperphagia.
Some studies have also emphasized the potential of yogurt nutrients such as calcium and proteins to favorably influence appetite control. These effects are likely the main determinants of the observed weight loss of several kilograms documented in yogurt consumers tested in clinical interventions and observational studies.

While drinking more than one to two cups of Joe a day can leave you feeling jittery and nervous, a moderate amount of coffee can be good for you.
It can help boost metabolism and act as an appetite suppressant. According to a comprehensive review published in the International Journal of Food Sciences and Nutrition , caffeine consumed 30 minutes to 4 hours before a meal causes a reduction in appetite.
Coffee's secret? Caffeine, along with antioxidants from the coffee beans. Just don't cancel out those good effects with too much sugar or cream. Ginger has been used for centuries for its amazing health benefits , including its digestive powers.
Whether it's in a smoothie or in an Indian dish, ginger works as a stimulant that energizes the body and improves digestion, thereby making you less hungry naturally. One small study in the journal Metabolism found that men who ate ginger had a reduced appetite.
Full of fiber and heart-healthy monounsaturated fat, avocados are a great source of nutrients. These healthy fruits lower cholesterol, help with blood sugar, aid in digestion, and strengthen bones. And, when eaten in moderation, they can suppress appetite.
In a study in Nutrients that compared the fullness of participants who consumed a meal comprised primarily of carbohydrates versus a meal that included either half or a whole avocado, those who ate avocado reported feeling fuller.
The study also tested the hormones associated with fullness in the blood of participants after each meal and found those hormones were elevated after they ate half or a full avocado. Instead of thinking about how to suppress your appetite, think about how to spice up your meals so you aren't left unsatisfied.
Spices with a kick help you to eat slower for a more intuitive eating experience. Apples of all varieties and types act as appetite suppressants for a number of reasons.
First, apples are filled with soluble fiber and pectin, which help you feel full. One large apple with skin contains over 5 grams of fiber. In addition, apples regulate your glucose and boost your energy level.
Apples also require lots of chewing time, which helps slow you down and gives your body more time to realize that you're no longer hungry. Plus, they just taste good! A study in the journal Nutrients suggests that foods, such as apples, with low calorie density can help promote fullness and support weigh loss in obese adults.
Eggs are filled with highly-digestible protein. One large egg contains 12 grams of protein. The journal Nutrients found that egg protein is especially helpful in reducing calorie intake due to a decrease in appetite.
A study in Nutrition Research also showed that eating an egg or two for breakfast can help you feel more full over 24 hours than if you eat a bagel with the same amount of calories.
In the same study, those who ate eggs ingested fewer calories over the course of a day than the bagel-eaters. Feeling hungry, but just had breakfast?
If you're not drinking enough water, it could be thirst instead. Aim for even a glass more every day and you could notice a huge difference in not just your appetite but your skin and digestion, too. In one study in the journal Obesity , people who drank two glasses of water before a meal ate between 75 and 90 fewer calories at the meal than those who didn't drink water, but it's not about eating less — it's about drinking more!
Sweet potatoes are vitamin-rich vegetables that are loaded with water and filling fiber. Each gram sweet potato contains nearly 4 grams of dietary fiber. Plus, they're full of vitamin A and vitamin C! Have a sweet craving you just can't shake? Sometimes the best thing to do is to shock it with something sour.
Umeboshi plums are basically pickled plums and can be fantastic for squashing sugar cravings. Find them at your local specialty store, Asian grocer, or on Amazon. Hot vegetable soups — broth-based with vegetables, chunky vegetable soup, chunky-pureed vegetable soup, and pureed vegetable soup — can fill you up and take the edge off of your hunger with minimal calories.
Try having a cup before your next meal or a big bowl for lunch! A study in the journal Appetite found that having a cup of soup before a meal can reduce your appetite so that you are less likely to consume as much during the subsequent meal. Yes, chocolate is a natural appetite suppressant.
Just try slowly savoring a piece or two of dark chocolate not milk chocolate with at least 70 percent cocoa the next time you crave it. If dark chocolate is too bitter for you, try having a piece with a cup of black coffee — it'll bring out the sweetness!
They found that a little dark chocolate helps to lower your cravings because the bitter taste signals the body to decrease your appetite. Not to mention that the stearic acid in dark chocolate helps slow digestion to help you feel fuller longer.
A rich plant-based protein source, tofu isn't just for vegetarians! For an easy way to introduce tofu in your diet , try adding it to your next healthy stir-fry or in a grain bowl with tofu and veggies.
Tofu is high in an isoflavone called genistein, which, according to a study in Advances in Nutrition , has been shown to suppress appetite and lower food intake. Ever notice how when you eat sushi it doesn't seem to take as much food to fill you up?
Well, part of that is because of the healthy fish in sushi, but the other part is due to that spicy green stuff: wasabi! According to a study in the journal Foods , the spiciness in wasabi makes it a natural appetite suppressant and anti-inflammatory.
If you're not a coffee drinker and get sick of water easily, try a natural appetite suppressant tea. Green tea can help you stave off hunger that results in mindlessly snacking. According to a research report in Appetite , the caffeine and catechins in green tea are the reason.
They suppress your appetite and make you feel full. Packing over 5 grams of protein and 4 grams of dietary fiber in a half-cup serving, oatmeal is a nutritionally rich food you can easily incorporate in your life. The high fiber content helps slow digestion which prevents uncomfortable spikes in blood sugar.
And while oats are also high in carbohydrates, the carbs in oatmeal provide energy and make you feel fuller for longer. According to research in the American College of Nutrition , oatmeal kept participants from feeling hungry for longer than regular breakfast cereals.
They can be eaten alone, mixed in a stew, or tossed in a salad. A study in the journal Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism considered the effect on appetite of eating lentils and other beans before meals. Lentils were found to be a better appetite suppressant and resulted in less food intake than chickpeas in the study.

If you're looking for a highly nutritious food that will fill you up for hours, you can't beat green leafy vegetables — they're the ultimate natural appetite suppressant. Fibrous greens eaten raw or gently sautéed with a little olive oil are a delicious way to keep hunger at bay.
A study in Plant Foods for Human Nutrition found that foods that are high in thylakoids, like spinach, kale, broccoli, and mustard greens, are particularly beneficial in reducing hunger. Each 3-ounce serving of fresh salmon contains nearly 17 grams of protein.
Not a fan of salmon, tuna and herring have similarly high levels of protein and omega-3s. Here's a super-easy way to make anything you're eating a natural appetite suppressant: Next time you have cereal, oatmeal, fruit, or even coffee, sprinkle some cinnamon on it. A research article on the medicinal properties of cinnamon found that cinnamon helps lower your blood sugar levels which helps to control your appetite.
Another protein powerhouse, just one 7-ounce container of plain Greek yogurt contains a whopping 20 grams of protein. In addition to making you feel full, other Greek yogurt benefits include a healthy gut, strong bones, and a boosted immune system.
Greek yogurt is better than skim or whole milk at suppressing appetite, according to an article in Applied Physiology, Nutrition, and Metabolism. When it comes to hot sauce as an appetite suppressant, the hotter you can go the better.
So get some Tabasco or any hot chili sauce and sprinkle some heat on your burrito, scrambled eggs, or even soup! According to research reviewed in the journal Appetiteconsumption of hot sauce containing hot chili peppers will help you stay fuller for longer. Not only that, the spiciness keeps you from eating too much.
With a nutritional mix of soluble fiber and essential fatty acids, flax seeds are the perfect addition to your yogurt, smoothie, or salad.
Just make sure you grind them first because the human body can't digest whole flax seeds. As a natural appetite suppressant, they'll help you stay full and fueled. Although the research on flax seeds and satiety is limited, a review in the journal Phytotherapy Research found that the available studies suggest a potential role of flax seeds in decreasing appetite and hunger.
If you want to keep the hunger monster away, eat a small salad before you sit down for a meal. Since it takes about 20 minutes for your stomach to signal to your brain that you're full, starting with a small salad before your meal is a perfect way to get a head-start on that hunger signal.
In a study in the Journal of the Academy of Nutrition and Dieteticsparticipants who ate a salad before a meal were less hungry and ate less of the meal than participants who did not have a salad as a first course. A salad can also be a great way to up your veggie intake.
Protein is known as an appetite suppressant, but it seems that whey protein is especially good. A review article on the effects of whey protein on appetite found that consuming this protein supplement in shakes or smoothies is effective a suppressing hunger.

EGCG , the most abundant green tea catechin and a powerful bioactive constituent, has also been shown to act like a cancer-fighting compound and promote thermogenic activities in studies. Therefore, it may help decrease fat cell proliferation and help burn body fat for energy. Although not every study has shown it can promote weight loss, green tea seems safe for most adults to take up to — milligrams daily. If you do take it, be on the lookout for side effects such as headaches, signs of hypertension, constipation or possibly increased symptoms of urinary tract infection. Some research suggests that taking certain saffron extracts can have positive effects on mood regulation by increasing endorphin and serotonin levels. Saffron seems to help reduce snacking and can cause an elevated mood, which has been shown to help improve symptoms of depression, emotional eating and PMS after about six to eight weeks of treatment. In fact, certain studies have found that saffron extract can work almost as well as taking a low-dose prescription antidepressant drug such as fluoxetine or imipramine. It can possibly decrease fatigue during exercise and help with increasing energy expenditure. To get the antidepressant benefits of saffron, start with the the standard daily dose of 30 milligrams, used for up to eight weeks. Grapefruit may help lower cravings, stimulate the lymphatic system and give you a mild dose of uplifting energy. Here are several findings from a number of studies about how grapefruit essential oil might promote weight loss :. Certain studies have shown that just three minute exposures to grapefruit essential oil each week helped participants suppress their appetites and practice healthy diet habits like slow, mindful eating. Dietary fibers, whether from food sources or in concentrated supplement form, have been used for hundreds of years to promote fullness, improve gut health and digestive functions, and help maintain strong immunity and heart health. Despite the fact that fiber intake is inversely associated with hunger, body weight and body fat, studies show that the average fiber intake of adults in the United States is still less than half of recommended levels. What is it about fiber that dulls your appetite? This makes you feel full for longer so you can manage your calorie intake. Eating a high-fiber diet has even been linked to a longer life span. Aim for at least 30 grams of fiber per day. Consume more high-fiber foods , including:. Supplements within fiber, such as psyllium husk , can help you meet your needs. Glucomannan is another type of water-soluble dietary fiber found in konjac root that can potentially curb your appetite by filling up your stomach. Finally, fenugreek seeds , which are rich in fiber and other compounds, have been shown to possibly help with weight management by contributing to fullness. They can also suppress hunger levels, normalize glucose levels and reduce free radical damage associated with aging. Studies have found that results associated with eating spices like cayenne with high-carb meals indicate that red pepper increases diet-induced thermogenesis heating the body and burning of fat and lipid oxidation. Other research regarding the effects of capsaicin , the phytochemical responsible for the spiciness of peppers, has shown that this compound can modulate metabolic activities through affecting transient receptors in the digestive system, such as one called TRPV1. Focus on types like turmeric, black pepper, chili and cayenne pepper. Try adding some to homemade tea or detox drinks, marinades, on top of fish or other proteins, in a stir-fry, on veggies, or in soups. Protein has been found to be naturally filling and also requires the body to work harder to break it down. Eating plenty of protein can contribute to reduced ghrelin levels , increased thermogenesis and a healthy metabolism — plus it can help build and maintain lean muscle mass, which equates to a healthy body composition. CLA is even used as weight loss supplement, although findings on its effectiveness have been mixed. Include protein-rich foods in every meal and snack, aiming for about 30 grams of protein with each main meal of the day. Try replacing high-calorie junk foods, such as those with added sugar and white flour, with protein instead. For the most benefits, focus on a combination of protein, healthy fats and fiber. For example, combine protein sources like poultry, grass-fed beef, fish, eggs, beans, legumes or yogurt with vegetables and fats, such as olive oil, avocado, nuts or seeds. The keto diet is a high-fat, very low-carb diet that puts your body into the metabolic state called ketosis. Once in ketosis, you burn fat for energy instead of sugar. When in ketosis, many people report that they experience a drop in their appetite , especially for sugary foods and refined carbs. The keto diet can be combined with intermittent fasting for even more help with weight control and managing food intake. Emphasize healthy fats in your diet, which are just as crucial for feeling full and staying satisfied as fiber and protein are. At the same time, avoid sugar and most carbs other than non-starchy vegetables.
