How to build a plate that keeps you full?
08/12/2026 • Customer news
Have you ever felt hungry again shortly after finishing a meal? Although many people assume this means they simply did not eat enough, the reason is often not the amount of food, but its composition. Experts increasingly point out that satiety does not depend solely on the number of calories consumed, but also on the balance of protein, dietary fibre, complex carbohydrates and other nutrients in a meal. The goal is not to eat less at all costs, but to build meals that help us stay full for longer. This is why modern approaches to weight management are placing increasing emphasis on the quality, rather than simply the quantity, of food.
Satiety starts with choosing the right foods
A meal that contains enough protein, fibre-rich vegetables and high-quality carbohydrates can contribute to a longer-lasting feeling of fullness than a meal with the same energy value made up predominantly of refined carbohydrates or foods high in added sugars. This type of diet can make it easier to maintain a regular meal schedule and reduce the need for frequent snacking between meals.
Dietary fibre plays an important role in a balanced diet. It contributes to the normal functioning of the digestive system and can be a valuable ally in adopting healthier eating habits. Experts therefore recommend regularly including vegetables, fruit, legumes and whole grains in the daily diet as natural sources of fibre. When healthy eating is viewed as a long-term habit rather than a short-term diet, it becomes much easier to maintain achieved results and improve overall health.
Nutritional support as part of a modern approach
Based on this concept, pharmaceutical company Galenika developed the Oli-support range of dietary supplements designed to provide nutritional support for people working towards reducing obesity or excess body weight. Products from this range may be used alongside Olire® liraglutide, or another medicine from the GLP-1 class, as part of a comprehensive approach and in accordance with the advice of a healthcare professional.
One of the products in Galenika’s Oli-support dietary supplement range is Oli-Lax, which provides an additional source of dietary fibre, galactooligosaccharides and the pasteurised bacterial strain Akkermansia muciniphila. These components support intestinal health, digestion and regular bowel function, which can be an important part of nutritional support during the weight-management process.
The goal is not simply to eat less, but to eat better
Modern approaches to weight management are no longer based on starvation or strict restrictions. Instead, the aim is to help people adopt sustainable habits that can contribute to maintaining health and quality of life. It is with this understanding that Galenika developed the Oli-support range of dietary supplements as nutritional support for people working towards reducing obesity or excess body weight.
Products from this range may be used alongside Olire® liraglutide, or another medicine from the GLP-1 class, as part of a comprehensive approach focused on long-term health improvement and sustainable results.
