Ghrelin Suppression Protocols

Meaning

Ghrelin Suppression Protocols are targeted clinical or behavioral strategies designed to intentionally reduce the circulating levels or biological action of the orexigenic hormone ghrelin. These protocols are primarily employed in weight management and metabolic health to decrease hunger drive and enhance the feeling of satiety between meals. Since ghrelin is a potent hunger signal, its effective suppression is a key therapeutic lever for mitigating the biological drive toward energy consumption. Nutritional timing and specific dietary compositions are often utilized to achieve this hormonal effect.
