How to Know if You're 80% Full

Those living long lives in Blue Zones communities follow a Power 9 concept known as the 80% Rule. They don't stuff themselves full of food to the point they're uncomfortable, but rather eat to 80% of their stomach's capacity. This can be tricky, but Lakes Regional Healthcare Registered Dietitian Beth Samuelson provides some tips on how to accomplish this.

Thumbs up just for making this video about this topic. I’m going to take brain retraining seriously. This seems like the perfect approach. Eat healthy foods until 80% full and by definition you’ll eat so much less.

Thank you Beth for explaining it so well!

Could you explain a little more what "a little hungry" feels like? I have been trying to do this but I don't think I'm eating enough because I'm feeling a bit tired and irritable all day or is this expected in the first couple of weeks?
