Higher Dietary Protein Helps Control Appetite

A new study shows that ghrelin, your stomach’s very own appetite signal, is much more under control for a longer period of time in response to a high protein meal.  When carbohydrates are eaten alone ghrelin is temporarily happy, but comes back with a vengeance 3 hours later (causing you to be more hungry). 

Back in 2002 I was one of the first to report on the relationship of ghrelin to leptin and its important role in hunger.  In fact, rule #4 of the Leptin Diet emphasizes this point: “Eat a breakfast containing protein.”  This new science helps confirm why it is so important to start the day with a higher protein breakfast, especially if you are prone to overeating.  Those who want a fast and easy high protein breakfast can use my specially formulated Daily Protein Plus, which also provides a serving of cardio-friendly oat beta glucan and Mangosteen fruit concentrate.  Our unique whey protein contains naturally occurring glycomacropeptides which also help you maintain a full feeling longer by increasing the satisfaction signal known as cholecystokinin (CCK).
