When you eat sugar combined with unsaturated fats you allow the body to maintain steady or normalized glucose levels. This reduces the release of insulin (a culprit of increased appetite and weight gain) into the bloodstream. Consuming fibrous fruits and chewing food a bit slower are two ways to allow leptin (the hormone that signals your brain that your stomach is full) to be most effective. Unsaturated fats are found in foods such as nuts, flaxseed oil, olive oil, peanut butter, avocado, and lentils. As with most foods, they are best consumed in the rawest form possible to maintain the natural nutrients and enzymes.
