HOW EXERCISE HELPS CURB YOUR APPETITE

Post-workout food and a healthy and balanced diet are essential. However, many experiences a constant feeling of hunger - the consequences are often overweight. But where does desire come from?

Hunger is a complex phenomenon. The feeling of hunger is regulated by neurotransmitters produced in the hypothalamus and tells your mind whether you are starving or full. In turn, these neurotransmitters receive information from various hormones, mainly insulin and leptin.

This natural process can get out of control, and the flow of information is disturbed. The consequences are usually constant hunger, overeating, and weight gain. Scientists suspect that the cells' inflammation can cause this signal disruption.

 

Would you like to lose weight without being hungry? Yes, you can: Exercise instead of just counting calories. Exercise acts as a natural appetite suppressant. We explain how:

 

Regular exercise can help relieve possible leptin resistance and reduce inflammation. This restores the natural flow of information that tells your brain that you are full.

Various studies have investigated the effect of exercise on two other hormones that influence our feeling of hunger: ghrelin, an appetite-stimulating hormone, and peptide YY, which gives a sense of satiety and curbs appetite.

 

It appears that exercise causes the concentration of ghrelin in our body to decrease while the concentration of peptide YY increases. However, this effect could only be demonstrated after a very intense workout. However, the lower the training, the longer the effects lasted.

The good news is that physical activity increases the concentration of some long-term appetite suppressant hormones, such as insulin and leptin. However, to promote these natural appetite suppressants, you need to exercise regularly: regular workouts stimulate the neurotransmitters that suppress the feeling of hunger. In other words, the more activity you do, the better your natural hunger signals work - which, more frequently than not, fallouts in less appetite.

 

 

However, there are not the only reasons you should train intensively regularly: Further studies have shown that intensive training (no matter how short) improves aerobic fitness and improves general health (blood pressure, insulin production). The intensity makes the difference: a more extended, moderate exercise has less positive effects on our body than a short, intense one.

 

 

Here is a summary of what you have to consider if you want to suppress the feeling of hunger with exercise:

KEYWORD

1. Intensity

Intense exercise is more effective than moderate workouts in reducing appetite.

 

2. Duration

The longer you exercise, the longer your body will need to recover and the longer it will take for hunger to reactivate.

 

3. Frequency

The more often you train long and hard, the better the body reacts to these appetite suppressant hormones.
