Proteins are essential for long satiety
Proteins also play a big part in preventing the body from experiencing hunger pungs. This is because it takes the body longer to digest proteins than carbohydrates. That’s why we feel satiated for a longer after eating it.
Protein is found in animal products such as meat, fish, eggs, yogurt, and cheese. And in plants, protein is found in beans, corn, soy, tempeh, and whole-grain products like quinoa.
