The appetite maintenance is one of the major causes of concern in today’s high stressed society. Super-high appetite can cause obesity, resulting in that extra baggage of flab on the waistline, whereas a low appetite causes weakness and decay, hindering us to have a healthy life.

Hence, to control the appetite with proper care is the key to healthy living.

Here we will discuss some highly effective tips to help us act as super appetite controllers.

1. Consuming foods with a ‘low glycemic index’: Glycemic Index is the measurement of the speed of a particular food items effect to increase the blood sugar level. Topping the chart is glucose with a 100 rating. Foods high in glycemic index are rated at an above 70 rate. Medium Glycemic Index foods come with a rating of above 56. Anything rated at less than or equal to 55 are low in glycemic index.

Classically a high glycemic index food will cause a sudden change in blood sugar level. Wherein, a distinctive falling sugar level causes a sudden trigger of hunger. Whereas, the ‘low glycemic index’ foods causes the blood sugar level to rise in a controlled fashion, providing a consistent source of energy for a long period. This method of controlled release prevents the body’s feel of hunger to be trigger, resulting in decreased appetite.

2. Slow Eating: When we have a slow consumption of food, it lets our brain to realize the fullness of the stomach.

Hence we can automatically understand the bio-clock of our body and act accordingly.

3. Eating multiple small meals v/s fewer large meals: The idea of slower energy release remains the same. One large meal quickly rises the energy level, which is trailed by a steeper drop soon enough, resulting in more feeling of hunger. This can result in ‘eating between the meals’. However, small meals on contrary will result in a slow release of energy and a controlled one as well. Resulting in reducing ‘eating between meals’, and lesser crave for food.

Hence, we should remember the bottom-line to be-controlled appetite is directly proportional to healthy life.
