Common Questions About Volumetrics
What is calorie density?
The number of calories in a given weight of food. Water and fiber lower it, so you eat more for fewer calories.
Are any foods banned?
No. Volumetrics limits rather than bans. High-density foods like chips, nuts, and oils are eaten in smaller amounts.
Which foods are the foundation?
Low-density foods like non-starchy vegetables, fruits, broth-based soups, and salads that fill you up on fewer calories.
Can I eat larger portions?
Yes. Low-calorie, high-water foods let you eat bigger portions for the same calories.
Why does it help with hunger?
Large, water-rich portions help you feel full and satisfied, which can naturally lower your overall calorie intake.
