Does protein powder help with hunger?

Absolutely! Protein powder is a great way to stave off hunger. Because it is nutrient-dense and high in protein, many people report feeling less hungry on days that they take their protein powder.

If you're particularly concerned about hunger or cravings, we can try adding more casein protein to your blend. Casein protein is very slow digesting and good for hunger – just let us know at rd@gainful.com. In general, you will always get the best hunger crushing results when you mix your protein powder with other foods. The variety of nutrients will help keep you full and – if you pick wisely – not raise calories very much.

Doing something simple like mixing your protein powder in milk or eating a piece of whole fruit with a little bit of peanut butter on it will greatly increase the fullness you get. Even something like raw veggies that barely contribute any calories would be great as well.
