Why Am I Always Hungry at 10 AM? (And How to Fix It with Plant Protein)
You eat breakfast at 8:00 AM. Maybe it’s cereal, toast, or just a coffee. By 10:30 AM, your stomach is growling, your energy is crashing, and you are hunting for snacks.
Sound familiar?
This mid-morning crash is usually due to a breakfast high in refined carbohydrates and low in protein. Your blood sugar spikes and falls rapidly, triggering hunger signals.
The secret to staying full until lunch isn’t just eating more; it’s eating the right kind of protein.
Why Pea Protein Stops Hunger in Its Tracks
While whey protein is digested very quickly, Cutetonic Organic Pea Protein is different. It is a slower-digesting protein that moves through your system more gradually.
Studies suggest that pea protein may be more effective at triggering the release of “satiety hormones” (the signals that tell your brain you are full) compared to dairy-based proteins.
The result? A thick, satisfying shake that keeps hunger locked down for hours.
The Ultimate “Stay Full” Breakfast Smoothie
Stop the snacking cycle. Try this simple swap:
Blend one scoop of Organic Pea Protein with a handful of spinach, half an avocado (for healthy fats), a handful of frozen berries, and water or almond milk.
This combination of protein, fibre, and healthy fats is the ultimate antidote to the mid-morning crash. You will feel energized and focused, not hunting for the biscuit tin.
