Yesterday, I took Dr. Oz's quiz: What's your metabolism type?
It asks you four questions, i.e. how would you describe your appetite, and what kinds of food do you crave most often and gives you three possible answers. You determine your type by your most common answer.
According to the test, if you answered mostly As, you have an emotional hunger type! You need more protein than people with other types of metabolisms, which is why you crave salty foods – salt is often found in proteins and fats. Your diet should be approximately 50% protein, 30% fats and 20% carbs. If you answered mostly Bs, you have a sensory hunger type! You crave sweets because your body easily digests and stores carbohydrates. Your diet should be approximately 70% carbs, 20% protein and 10% fats. If you answered mostly Cs, you have a habitual hunger type! You crave both sweet and salty foods because your body has the ability to utilize protein, fats and carbohydrates equally. Your diet should be approximately 33% protein, 33% fats and 33% carbs.
Most my answers were B, so I'm a sensory hunger type. I found that very interesting because I'm already eating this way, as you can see from screenshot. Look at the pie chart in the upper righthand corner. The first number is the actual percentage and the second is the suggested. My current meal plan fits it perfectly. :-)
