Poor Appetite Advice
Poor appetite can lead to fewer intakes of calories and thus may supply fewer nutrients in return when the choices made are wrong. Try the following tips to increase your appetite in general and also when you wake up in the morning.
- Have moderate fiber diet, don't emphasize on fiber too much as fiber stays in the stomach for a longer time delaying the stomach emptying and thus provides a feeling of fullness.
- Emphasize on starchy carbohydrates like white rice, potatoes, pastas, and bread. It is easy to eat more starchy carbohydrates thereby more calorie intake in return.
- Fruit juice also gives simple carbohydrates and drinking just a cup of a fruit juice half hour before a meal can cause a quick rise in blood sugar levels due to presence of simple carbohydrates followed by a rapid decline which in turn triggers appetite. So when you wake up in the morning you can start your day with a cup of fruit juice and then after 30 minutes have breakfast with 2-3 slices of bread along with glass milk.
- Over eat at night before sleeping and you will have a great appetite in the morning when you wake up. This is due to release of insulin in large quantities which is also considered as an appetite stimulating hormone that stretches your stomach and elevates the metabolism.
- Add artificial sweeteners in your diet. Although sweeteners have fewer calories they stimulate the body to release insulin which in turn helps in increasing the appetite.
- Some herbs and spices with bitter flavor tend to improve the appetite by stimulating the flow of saliva and digestive juices which speeds digestion and trigger hunger.
