  • feeling full is caused by the GI tract being full

    • Proteins and fats remain in GI tract longer than carbs. Protein and fat stimulate this above peptide GIP.

  • GIP slows the release of stomach contents into the duodenum. Therefore you feel full longer. Due to the stomach emptying slower. Fiber can also add to this feeling.
