Because the fat takes longer to digest that protein or carbohydrate, nutritionists used to think it was more satisfying. Recent studies show that, overall, carbohydrate satiates better than fat. Preliminary studies suggest that people who have trouble regulating their body weight may actually be relatively insensitive to the satiety value of fat. | |
