its something you take in every day when you eat
hint - it's not carbohydrates. Eating carbs raises blood glucose levels, followed by a decrease in blood sugar (after insulin is secreted and 'grabs' some of the carbs). The decline in blood sugar (aka serum glucose) often increases appetite. So it's said that carbs are initially satiating, but not over the long haul.
Protein (animal meats, eggs, beans) will satiate hunger and will keep you fuller longer. Different sources of protein digest at different rates, but overall protein sources are relatively slow-digesting and will not burn off quickly like carbs (breads, sugar, rice).
