Show Notes
Today in Episode 81, I share some scientific evidence on one gut-brain pathway involved in feeling satisfied and full. There are many ways that eating signals to our brain that we are satisfied, for example, the taste receptors, the volume of food, the macronutrients, and in today's episode, the act of chewing. I go into clinical trial evidence on how longer periods of chewing can increase gut satiety hormone release, recruit satiety brain regions, and more. This is the science behind mindful eating. Tune in for all the details.
