Hunger is when your stomach contracts and is empty, your brain then signals your body that it’s time to refuel by consuming food. When your stomach stretches out enough to press on your vagal nerve, this signals your brain that you have consumed enough food, and prompts you to stop eating.

However, there are people who always feel hungry even after meals. Research has shown that high protein foods, dietary fibre and water made people stay full in a “not hungry” state for longer than people who consumed bakery products. Eating a balanced diet plays an important role, so your body will not crave for what it's missing.

Here are some five healthy foods that will surely make you feel fuller  longer.
