Vigorous Treadmill Workout Curbs Appetite Hormones
U.K. researchers say findings may lead to more effective ways to control weight
(HealthDay News) -- Aerobic exercise is better than non-aerobic activities at suppressing appetite, according to a U.K. study.
The research involved 11 male university students who participated in three types of sessions. In one, they ran for 60 minutes on a treadmill and then rested for seven hours. In another, they did 90 minutes of weight lifting and then rested for 6.5 hours. In the third session, they did no exercise.
The participants received two meals during each session and also reported their hunger levels at various points during each session. The researchers measured the students' levels of two major appetite hormones: ghrelin (which stimulates appetite) and peptide YY (which suppresses appetite).
During the treadmill session (aerobic exercise), ghrelin levels dropped and peptide YY levels increased, indicating that the hormones were suppressing appetite. During the weightlifting (non-aerobic) session, ghrelin levels decreased, but there was no significant change in peptide YY levels. The appetite hormone effects of both types of exercise lasted for a few hours.
Both types of exercise suppressed hunger, but aerobic exercise resulted in greater suppression of hunger. The findings were published online in the
American Journal of Physiology -- Regulatory, Integrative and Comparative Physiology
.
The finding that hunger is suppressed during and immediately after vigorous treadmill running is consistent with previous studies indicating that strenuous aerobic exercise transiently suppresses appetite, senior author David J. Stensel, of Loughborough University, said in an American Physiological Society news release. The findings suggest a similar, although slightly attenuated response, for weight-lifting exercise.
He said this line of research may lead to more effective ways to use exercise to help control weight.

I use Walker's Diet Low-Carb Multi, NSI MSM Glucosamine Chondroitin, NSI L-Taurine, NSI Coral Calcium and NSI Gymmena Extract.
I am a fitness competitor and my strict diet sacrifices essential nutrients like calcium, and Vitamins A and D.
I started taking NSI Vitamins last year to help supplement my diet for optimal health and performance and to aid in the prevention of injuries in the gym and future health problems as a young woman. I can train harder and more effectively in the gym. I have less tendonitis in my knees. I have better focus, alertness, and performance in the gym. I sleep better at night, and am more productive during the day at work. My skin, hair, and nails are thick and beautiful. My periods are more regular. And keeping the fat off is easier. And mentally I feel better overall
