Satiety

Calculation: 1 (base) + 1 (low energy density: 97 kcal/100 g) + 0 (protein: 2.3 g/100 kcal) + 2 (fiber: 10.7 g/100 kcal) + 1 (solid food with 72.9 g of water) = 5.

The 1 to 5 score is our own estimate: it starts at 1 point, adds points for low energy density, for protein and fiber per 100 kcal, and for the water in solid foods, and subtracts points for drinks with calories. It is useful for comparing foods with each other; it is not a measurement in people.

What to keep in mind on a GLP-1 medication

High in fiber
It has at least 3 g of fiber per 100 g. Fiber adds bulk and slows digestion, which contributes to fullness, and it helps keep you regular; constipation is a common side effect of GLP-1 medications. It is usually easier to tolerate when you increase it gradually and drink enough water.
Low energy density
It has 100 kcal or less per 100 g: plenty of volume for few calories, which helps you feel full. On a GLP-1 medication, which already reduces your appetite, make sure these foods do not push protein foods off your plate.
