Why Am I Hungry Again an Hour After Breakfast?

If breakfast disappears and your stomach is growling again an hour later, the issue may not be breakfast itself. It may be what the meal was missing.

What Helps a Breakfast Feel More Substantial?

A meal that includes protein, fiber and some healthy fat tends to be more substantial than one built mostly around refined carbohydrates or sugar.

For example, compare a pastry and coffee with a breakfast that includes protein plus fruit, seeds or whole grains. They are very different meals even if both are called breakfast.

Do You Need a Huge Breakfast?

No. The goal is not to force down a giant meal. It is to build a meal that fits your appetite while including nutrients that make sense for the hours ahead.
