hunger control

FBX Hunger Control Supplements are designed to manage feelings of hunger and food cravings.

Hunger can be triggered by psychological factors

such as stress, boredom, and emotional states

what is hunger control?

Hunger control is the ability to manage feelings of hunger in a balanced and healthy way, allowing you to regulate your food intake and make mindful eating choices.

It involves understanding your body's hunger cues, knowing when to eat, and choosing nutrient-dense foods that keep you satisfied for longer periods.

what are food and sugar cravings?

Food cravings are strong desires for certain foods, while sugar cravings are characterised by a strong urge specifically for sweet foods. At times, these cravings can become strong enough that they become difficult to manage and result in overindulgence or overconsumption of sweet treats.

how to manage
food cravings

Start by staying hydrated, as thirst can sometimes be mistaken for hunger. Ensure you reach your daily recommended water intake. You can stay hydrated by consuming not only water but reaching for herbal teas, fruit-infused water and more.

Practice mindful eating by eating slowly and savouring your meals and snacks, paying attention to hunger cues and when you begin to feel full. It takes time for the body to send signals that you are full, so eating slowly allows time to recognise you are satiated.

Next, maintain a balanced diet rich in protein, fibre, and healthy fats to help you feel fuller for longer and reduce cravings. Eating regular, well-balanced meals and snacks can also support healthy blood sugar and prevent sudden hunger pangs.

Consider incorporating more physical exercise into your daily routine, as exercise can boost your mood and distract you from habitual cravings. Some people find themselves eating out of boredom, so keeping active is a great way to prevent mindless snacking.

Learn how to create a meal with adequate servings and visually understand what a correct portion size looks like for your needs. Use a technique such as creating a ‘healthy eating plate’ where vegetables and fruits are  ½ of your plate, whole grains are ¼ of your plate and protein is ¼ of your plate. This can assist with learning how to create a healthy nutritional-dense meal while understanding how big portion sizes need to be. 

FBX Reducta uses key ingredients - Caralluma and Gymnema - to help reduce hunger and manage food and sugar cravings. It can be a powerful ally as part of a holistic approach to help reduce hunger.

frequently asked questions

  • How do I stop feeling hungry when intermittent fasting?

    First, stay well-hydrated by drinking plenty of water throughout the day. You can also enjoy herbal teas or black coffee.

    Ensure the meals consumed in the eating period are high in protein, and balanced in fat, fibre, and carbohydrates.

    Additionally, getting enough sleep can play a role in regulating hunger hormones, making it easier to fast. Redirecting your focus with light physical activity or other tasks can also shift your thoughts away from hunger.

  • What does an increased appetite mean?

    An increased appetite can indicate your body requires more nutrients due to factors such as increased physical activity,  change in stress levels, undereating and changes to hormonal or metabolic factors. It’s important to always consult with a trusted health professional if you notice changes outside of your usual routine.
  • What hormones are responsible for appetite?

    The hormones that regulate appetite include ghrelin and leptin. Ghrelin, often called the ‘hunger hormone,’ is produced in the stomach and signals the brain when it's time to eat.

    Leptin, also known as the ‘satiety hormone,’ is produced by fat cells and signals fullness to the brain, helping to regulate appetite and energy balance.

  • How to manage sugar cravings?

    Start by gradually reducing your sugar intake to allow your taste buds to adjust. You may find yourself craving sugar or artificial sweeteners less as you lower their presence in your diet. Eating balanced meals with a mix of protein, healthy fats, and fibre can help keep blood sugar steady and minimise cravings.

    Opting for naturally sweet options like fruit alongside fat or protein-based snacks such as nut butter or seed mixes when you do want something sweet can satisfy cravings without spiking blood sugar levels.

    Additionally, managing stress and getting enough sleep can help regulate hormones that influence cravings.

    Leptin, also known as the ‘satiety hormone,’ is produced by fat cells and signals fullness to the brain, helping to regulate appetite and energy balance.

  • What foods help reduce appetite?

    High-fibre foods like whole grains, vegetables, fruits, and legumes take longer to digest, keeping you satisfied for longer, while protein-rich foods such as lean meats, fish, eggs, and plant-based proteins also increase satiety and reduce cravings.

    Healthy fats from sources like avocados, nuts, and seeds contain more calories but can contribute to feeling full and satisfied.

  • Should I take supplements to reduce hunger?

    It can be beneficial to take supplements that contain ingredients like Caralluma and Gymnema to help reduce hunger and manage cravings.

    Caralluma is a plant extract that can be used to help reduce appetite and hunger.

    Gymnema, on the other hand, is an herbal extract that helps with managingsugar and food cravings and assists with maintaining healthy blood sugar.

    When combined with a healthy diet and lifestyle, supplements with these ingredients can support health goals by curbing cravings.
