A study published in the Journal of the Endocrine Society found that vigorous exercise suppresses hunger levels more than moderate exercise in healthy adults, especially in females. The study focused on the effects of exercise intensity on ghrelin levels, known as the “hunger hormone,” and appetite between men and women. Results showed that high-intensity exercise suppressed ghrelin levels more than moderate exercise, leading to reduced feelings of hunger. The study also highlighted that exercise above the lactate threshold may be necessary to suppress ghrelin levels. Researchers emphasized the importance of personalized exercise interventions for appetite suppression, particularly in weight loss programs.
