Exercise Suppresses Appetite By Affecting Appetite Hormones
11th July 2010
A vigorous 60-minute workout on a treadmill affects the release of two key appetite hormones, ghrelin and peptide YY, while 90 minutes of weight lifting affects the level of only ghrelin, according to a new study. Taken together, the research shows that aerobic exercise is better at suppressing appetite than non-aerobic exercise and provides a possible explanation for how that happens.
So the reason I get hungry is because I’m a slug? I’m okay with that.
