Satiety hormones, also known as hunger hormones, are hormones released by certain organs of the body that help control feelings of hunger and fullness. These hormones play an important role in how the body regulates energy balance and body weight.

Leptin

Leptin is a hormone produced by fat cells in the body. It helps to regulate energy balance and body weight by decreasing appetite and increasing metabolism. Leptin is important for long-term regulation of body weight; it is released when the body has stored enough energy, telling the brain that the body has enough energy and does not need to eat.

Ghrelin

Ghrelin is a hormone produced in the stomach that increases appetite and stimulates the release of growth hormone. It is released when the body is in a fasting state, telling the brain that the body needs energy. Ghrelin is important for short-term regulation of body weight; it is released when the body is in need of energy, telling the brain that the body needs to eat.

Cholecystokinin (CCK)

Cholecystokinin (CCK) is a hormone produced by the small intestine in response to the presence of food in the stomach. It helps to regulate feelings of fullness and satiety by decreasing appetite and stimulating pancreatic enzyme secretion. CCK is important for both short-term and long-term regulation of body weight; it is released when the body has enough energy, telling the brain that the body does not need to eat.

Peptide YY (PYY)

Peptide YY (PYY) is a hormone produced by the small intestine in response to the presence of food in the stomach. It helps to regulate feelings of fullness and satiety by decreasing appetite and increasing metabolism. PYY is important for both short-term and long-term regulation of body weight; it is released when the body has enough energy, telling the brain that the body does not need to eat.

Satiety hormones play an important role in how the body regulates energy balance and body weight. By regulating appetite and metabolism, these hormones help to ensure that the body has enough energy to function properly while also maintaining a healthy body weight.

Satiety hormones are hormones that signal to your brain when you are full and help regulate your appetite. Examples of satiety hormones include leptin, cholecystokinin (CCK), and peptide YY (PYY). Leptin is released from fat cells and signals to your brain that you have had enough to eat. CCK is released from the small intestine and tells your brain that food has been digested and that you are no longer hungry. PYY is also released from the small intestine and helps to reduce hunger and appetite.

Satiety hormones are hormones that signal to the brain that the body has had enough food and can stop eating. They are released by the gut into the bloodstream after a meal and can act on the hypothalamus to reduce hunger and influence food intake. Examples of satiety hormones include cholecystokinin (CCK), peptide YY (PYY), leptin, ghrelin, and amylin. Each of these hormones plays an important role in the regulation of food intake, with CCK and PYY decreasing hunger and ghrelin and amylin increasing hunger.
