it is not a system but a practice and as long you don't play the game
totally without exception for at least few weeks you will have hard time to
understand why instinctos insist on the food not being denatured . for sure
even denatured foods can let you know the limit of your organism to
metabolise it properlly but it will be allways beyond the quantity you will
know to be sufficient if the food is left undenatured .
also in the context where  some foods are more or less denatured , there is
most likelly going to be surcharge of some foods and by consequence some
undereating of others .
 for ex overeating ( in relation to your metabolic needs ) of nuts will
"block" you on animal fats or overeating of fruits will makes you block on
vegetables . bypassing the stop with meats also lead you to want to eat
sweets like dates or honey .
to note :  the stop instinctos are talking about is not the same that what
happen when obviouslly you can't swallow it anymore ,this is way beyond of
what instinctos learned by practice to recognise as "stop", it is a more
subtil change of taste that what people experience as being full .

Instinctive eating is different than other diets by the fact  there is no
wrong way of doing it ,you practice it or you don't ! if your practice is
not satisfying the only  possible wrongness is in regard of your own
metabolism . it ask for ultimate responsibility .
