Dietary 'Bioactives' Could Help Explain Why Some People Eat More But Gain Less
Briefly

From the moment food touches your tongue to the time it leaves your body, your digestive system and gut microbiome work to extract its nutrients.
Recent research indicates that a significant factor influencing people's variable appetites, digestion, and metabolism are biologically active leftover components of food, known as bioactives.
Fiber and polyphenols also help regulate your appetite and calorie intake through the brain. Your microbiome transforms these leftover bioactives into metabolites.
Eating more whole foods and less processed foods simply lets you eat more because more of those unprocessed calories go out the other end unused.
