[quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous][quote=Anonymous]I don't think meal replacement smoothies are a good idea. Your body does not register fullness in the same way when you drink food (without chewing) as it does when you eat it. Therefore smoothies can have a rebound effect because you are hungrier than you would be had you eaten the equivalent in calories. [/quote] Yes this goes to satiety. Chewing tells your brain that you are satiated. So you just have to be careful with this method.[/quote] I make smoothies for breakfast sometimes - not for weight loss, but because I like them and it helps me get in extra spinach. I do a frozen banana, a few handfuls of spinach, a little water and a pinch of ginger. I have definitely found I get hungrier faster than if I had eaten a more solid breakfast. I didn't know it was because of the chewing. I thought it was because it takes longer to digest the solid food. Maybe both? [/quote]
