STOP Overeating: 4 Different Types of Hunger & How to Fix Each One

Are you tired of battling different types of hunger that sabotage your health goals? Join me on this eye-opening journey as we uncover the four key types of hunger: homeostatic, emotional, environmental, and hormonal. When it comes to eating, I advocate for the plate method, with a strong emphasis on eating protein first. Protein is not only satiating but also aids in blood-sugar balance and curbing hunger. Pairing protein with fiber-rich, non-starchy vegetables, fruits, and slow low carbs like lentils and wild rice can keep you feeling satisfied for longer. Additionally, incorporating healthy fats from sources such as extra-virgin olive oil and wild salmon can help suppress hunger by triggering the release of gut neuropeptides.  Hydration is also a key aspect of managing hunger. I stress the importance of consuming plenty of fluids, including water, green tea, and black coffee. By addressing hormonal eating patterns, such as stress eating and PMS-related cravings, we can better understand the triggers and find healthier alternatives. I recommend my comprehensive Virgin Diet to identify food intolerances and address leaky gut, which can lead to inflammation, joint pain, and cravings for unhealthy foods. Breaking the cycle of habitual hunger involves replacing routines with non-food activities while avoiding the allure of hedonic hunger caused by ultra-processed foods. Retraining your taste buds to appreciate natural sweetness and steering clear of ultra-processed temptations are essential steps in overcoming constant cravings and sugar addiction. By stabilizing blood-sugar levels, you can effectively halt any unintentional setbacks on your path to optimal health.  Together, let's conquer these hunger types, rewire your taste preferences, and make effective strides toward achieving your health goals.  Full notes: jjvirgin.com/conquerhunger Get a copy of The Virgin Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/books/products/the-virgin-diet-paperback Carbon app for tracking macros: https://www.joincarbon.com/ Sparkling C Powder: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/sparkling-c-fizz Take Ten Stress Support: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/take-ten-stress-support Guided meditation with Dr. Joe Dispenza: 154.37386a&utm_source=refersion&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_campaign=6914154.37386a Get a copy of The Sugar Impact Diet: https://store.jjvirgin.com/collections/books/products/sugar-impact-diet-paperback-book Eat by the Plate: https://jjvirgin.com/eat-by-the-plate/ Sunlighten Saunas: https://get.sunlighten.com/j748h5w7er2a Try my protein calculator: http://jjvirgin.com/proteinfirst Extra Fiber: https://store.jjvirgin.com/products/extra-fiber
