Key Takeaway: Decreasing dietary energy density (more water-rich vegetables, lean meats, and whole grains) reduces spontaneous caloric intake by 300–450 kcal per day without conscious deprivation.
1. Optimize Non-Exercise Activity Thermogenesis (NEAT)
Increasing daily step counts from 4,000 to 10,000 steps burns an additional 300–500 kcal daily—equivalent to a structured gym session without elevation in appetite hormones.
