Sim, agora cientificamente provado:

Citando:
"Their conclusion does not provide much of a jolt: Eating protein is related to satiety in the short term, they say. Even “modestly higher” amounts of protein may help you feel fuller between meals, though the team could not determine an actual formula, say grams of protein per BMI for men or women. They also say it’s unclear if the results hold up over the long term or if, say, your body gets used to the added protein.

However, if you’d like to put this into practice — if you’re on a diet and scaling back on calories and don’t want to feel hungry — the researchers suggest you eat additional protein in small increments as a first step. Protein-rich foods consist of dairy (eggs, milk, and yogurt), meat (steak, pork chops, lamb), fish (tuna, salmon, halibut, octopus), fowl (chicken and turkey), legumes (beans, peanuts, and lentils) and some grains (wheat germ and quinoa)."
