Wheat Fiber Changes Gut Hormones (PYY, Ghrelin) But Doesn't Immediately Affect Appetite
Wheat fiber intake altered postprandial PYY and ghrelin levels without acutely changing appetite or satiety ratings, suggesting gut hormone changes from fiber need time to translate into appetite effects.
Quick Facts
What This Study Found
Wheat fiber modified postprandial PYY and ghrelin responses without immediate appetite changes, suggesting fiber-induced gut hormone modulation requires chronic exposure rather than acute meal effects for meaningful appetite impact.
Key Numbers
How They Did This
RCT study on neuropeptides, weight-loss.
Why This Research Matters
Relevant for neuropeptides, weight-loss, bioactive-food-peptides.
The Bigger Picture
Advances peptide research.
