Take home Message:

Processing of food items high in protein and fat is mostly harmless, at least as far as short term metabolic responses are concerned. Prioritize food items high in these macronutrients.

• Plant foods (carbohydrates) should be carefully selected on the basis of their (dense) structure. Processing, especially industrial refining disrupts structure and accelerates absorption, resulting in reduced satiation. Excluding most carbohydrate sources also solves this problem...

• Consume carbohydrate rich foods at the end of the meal (dessert).

• Have fewer, larger meals vs. frequent small ones. Snacking is a bad idea- key is nutrient dense real quality based food.

• Eat your meal slowly to maximize satiation via the increased release of lower intestinal hormones.
