When we want to lose weight, a strange phenomenon can very easily happen to us when we go on a diet, a phenomenon that can even get out of hand if we don’t know how to control it. It is called nervous hunger. It is our body’s defensive response to calorie restriction , which is why I strongly advise against following very restrictive diets. Nervous hunger generally has its ideal moments in which to peek: usually between meals, for example around noon if we usually eat at one o’clock, but it is in particular in the afternoon that it causes more victims. The reason is simple:during the afternoon we have a metabolic peak, so the body demands more. The craving for sugar is typical of nervous hunger, especially in the afternoon. For this reason, playing with the right weight loss snacks early can make a huge difference in our journey to lose weight without starving our bodies.
Here are the “ideal fuels”, a series of nutritious but light slimming snacks to avoid nervous hunger and help metabolism according to four nutritionists . These ideas will amaze you.
