Nutrition values are per 100 g (3.5 oz) of the food as described (raw, cooked, or drained) and come from the USDA FoodData Central database. Each food page also shows a typical serving in grams and ounces, with cups where a cup measure makes sense.

The 1 to 5 satiety score is our own estimate: it adds points for low energy density, protein, fiber, and water, and subtracts points for drinks with calories. When a food was measured in the Holt satiety index (1995), its page shows that result too, along with notes on how the food tends to sit on a GLP-1 medication such as Ozempic, Wegovy, Mounjaro, or Zepbound.

For ready-made lists, such as the foods highest in protein or fiber, see the food rankings.

219 foods, sorted by estimated satiety (highest first) and then by protein per calorie.
