1. Green tea
An age-old traditional drink of the Chinese is now available even in the local markets in India. The catechins present in green tea hamper the movement of glucose into fat cells. This slows down the rise of blood sugar and prevents high insulin. When your blood sugar is stable, so is your appetite. Replace your routine morning and evening tea with green tea to consume lesser portions of your meals
2. Dark chocolate
Interestingly, its appetite suppressing quality lies in its taste, provided you choose the darkest variety. Choose chocolates that have at least 70 per cent cocoa, and you will feel satiated in just a couple of bites. In fact, we suggest you get all the antioxidant and stress-relieving goodness of dark chocolate by having it every day!
3. Eggs
Eggs are the best hunger suppressants, especially when eaten for breakfast, to keep you feeling stuffed for long hours. No matter what else you have for breakfast, make one egg a part of it, and notice changes in your appetite. Not just that, the superlative protein and vitamin A quality makes eggs the best choice for you to feel energetic all day long.
4. Ginger
Ginger has been deemed as the cure for stomach disorders since ages. The chemical composition of ginger can affect your digestion and hunger in the best way. By aiding normal digestion, and being a great source of fibre, it has the inherent property of reducing hunger. Add ginger to your tea and fruit juices for that hot twist. You can even make it a compulsory additive for your vegetable preparations.
5. Avocados
Avocados are high in energy, but the fats that they are composed of are the good ones. The essential fats in avocados actually trigger the satiety feeling, thus making you feel full quickly. Add two tablespoons of the yummy green pulp to your meal and note the change in your appetite! But make sure you eat them in moderation as they are rich in calories.
