What is ultra-processed food? The answer can vary, depending upon the source you read. This guide explores the science behind that belief. We believe that by avoiding foods with high levels of hedonic factors, you’ll gain better control over your cravings and as a result, reduce your overall calorie intake. Even if you aren’t hungry, it seems you always “have room” for these engineered food products. Some classic examples are ice cream, french fries, and potato chips. Both the level of processing and combination of fat, carbs, sugar, and salt can contribute to the hedonic nature of these food products. Scientific data show that certain foods have addictive-like properties, stimulating someone to eat more, even in the absence of traditional hunger. But it is equally important to avoid foods that have hedonic properties - those that trigger you to want to eat more and more and more (and more)! Many of our guides on eating for satiety emphasize the importance of choosing foods that are high in protein, low in energy density, and high in fiber.
But they also have a lot to do with the foods you don’t eat. Higher-satiety eating and healthy weight loss are affected by the foods you eat.
