It doesn’t matter how much you fill up on certain foods, you never seem to feel satiated. I’ve learned over the years that whole foods fill you up and processed, junk foods can bring on the pangs of hunger as if you didn’t eat anything at all. This results from the fact that much of the nutrient density is depleted in processing.
And no matter how much your will power attempts to hold strong, certain foods are addictive. No matter how bad they make you feel, you just can’t stop. I mean you could stop, it’s not like you’re tied to the kitchen table being force-fed, but you get my drift.
What are these foods? What foods should you avoid when you’re trying to get the most for your hunger buck?

Good article, thanks for sharing, good stuff to know.
Chewing gum isn't food. Drinking green tea will stop you craving that kind of junk food. It takes a couple of weeks but it works.
thanks!
