I heard this comment again recently, so perhaps you too are wondering. How can you keep from being hungry all the time when eating this way?<\/p>\n<p>1) Eat when you&#8217;re hungry! When eating G.O.D. (God&#8217;s Original Diet)\u2122 foods, remember He said, &#8220;You may freely eat.&#8221; These foods digest easier and you may feel hungry sooner than when eating &#8220;other&#8221; (non-) foods. Also remember 3 meals a day is a cultural thing. Our bodies do better on 5-6 smaller meals per day. So, if you&#8217;re eating <em><strong>Good for You &#8211; Naturally!<\/strong><\/em>\u2122 foods, eat when you&#8217;re hungry.<\/p>\n<p>2) Drink more water. Are you drinking what your body needs? That&#8217;s drinking, every day, 1\/2 oz. pure water for every pound you weigh. Many times we think we&#8217;re hungry when really we are just thirsty. Try drinking a glass of pure water and waiting a bit before eating, if you&#8217;re &#8220;continually&#8221; hungry. Those &#8220;hunger pangs&#8221; may have just been from thirst.<\/p>\n<p>3) Eat more fiber rich foods. Fresh juices and fruits won&#8217;t stay with you as long as most fresh vegetables, (as well as the more concentrated foods below.)<\/p>\n<p>4) Eat more higher concentrated foods. Nuts and whole grains are more concentrated, and will fill you up even longer. Increase your amount of nuts and seeds, (and even whole grains and starchy vegetables,\u00a0 if you tolerate them well and don&#8217;t have health problems.) Avocado is higher in good fats than most plant foods and more filling also. Other good oils you can use are virgin, raw coconut oil and olive oil.<\/p>\n<p>There are 4 easy ways to keep from being hungry. Eat more vegetables, and eat more concentrated foods if you need to. But most of all, eat when you are truly hungry. Let your children eat when they are truly hungry. Teach them how to recognize the difference between true\u00a0 hunger, thirst, and just plain boredom, (the reason most people eat.)<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>This wasn&#8217;t the first time I&#8217;ve heard people say they or their children are always hungry when following a raw\/ Good for You &#8211; Naturally!\u2122 lifestyle of eating.
