Questions that cite this source.
Food environment answer
Are ultra-processed foods bad for fat loss?
Ultra-processed foods are not morally bad, but they can make fat loss harder when they increase passive calorie intake, cravings, and repeated food-cue decisions. The coaching move is default design, not fear-mongering.
Protein and hunger answer
Does protein help you stay full?
Protein can help many people feel fuller and make a fat-loss plan easier to repeat, but it is not a hunger off-switch. Its best coaching use is as a meal-structure anchor that protects lean mass and reduces the odds of random grazing.
