Have you heard of Volume Eating for weight loss?

Volume eating is eating low-calorie, high-volume foods, particularly high in water content like fruits and vegetables.

What are high-volume foods?

High-volume foods have a lot of water or fibre, but are low in calories. They include:

β€” Broth-based soups, like chicken, or vegetable soup

β€” Fruits, like berries, apples and oranges

β€” Vegetables, like lettuce, kale, bell peppers

β€” Whole grains, like brown rice and quinoa

How do these foods keep us full?

:backhand_index_pointing_right: The fluid and fibre slow down digestion, making us feel fuller for a longer period and help in controlling appetite.

Yes ,volume eating means eating foods that have a lot of volume but are low in calories, like fruits, vegetables, broth-based soups, and whole grains. These foods are high in water and fiber, which help us feel full for longer without consuming too many calories. This can help with weight loss because you can eat larger portions and still stay within your calorie limit.

I personally like the concept of volume eating given that it makes weight loss seem less limiting as one may consume fulfilling portions whilst lowering calories.

So it aims at a full stomach for longer time and less periodic cravings. Right?

Thank you for the detailed information. This kind of practice is easy to follow as well. People from Vietnam, Thailand follow this method I believe.

That’s a good information for those who want to eat healthy and also want to loose some weight.

Volume eating focuses on consuming large portions of low-calorie, high-volume foods like vegetables, fruits, and broth-based soups. These foods are rich in fiber and water, helping you feel full while reducing overall calorie intake. It promotes healthy, sustainable weight loss by preventing hunger and encouraging better food choices.
