Ghrelin and insulin sensitivity
October 13th, 2006 | by David Spelts |Ghrelin, a gut hormone that stimulates appetite, is associated with improved insulin sensitivity. As the subjects lost weight, those with the best insulin sensitivity had the greatest increases in ghrelin.
The study did not look at appetite. Ghrelin increases appetite, but lower insulin levels decrease appetite. Perhaps it is a wash in the end.
