    Do you mean ghrelin? If that's what you mean, then unfortunately, no ways have been developed that I am aware of to reduce them, other than eating.

    That would be a multi-million dollar discovery, though. Get on it, Rose.

    It probably did increase with weight loss, one of the ways nature is fighting back against weight loss. For me personally it takes about 45 minutes to stop feeling hungry. So maybe eat. drink alot of water and give it 45 minutes? I would be interested to know if this works.

    Intermittent fasting helps from what I've read.

    Sleeping --people who don't sleep enough don't have adequate levels of both ghrelin and leptin.

    Vertical Sleeve Gastrectomy (weight loss surgery) decreases ghrelin by removing the portion of the stomach which produces it.
