After eating, the gut releases a hormone called cholecystokinin (CCK), which promotes digestion and curbs hunger.

<h3>Is CCK an appetite suppressant?</h3>

Although CCK may only be one of many satiety signals, when given exogenously at pharmacologic levels, it can result in a significant reduction in food intake. Humans' appetites can be decreased by administering exogenous CCK or endogenous CCK released by oral protease inhibitors.

<h3>What use does CCK function?</h3>

The proximal small intestine contains a high concentration of CCK cells, and when food is consumed, the hormone is secreted into the blood. CCK's physiological effects include inducing satiety, regulating stomach emptying, and stimulating pancreatic secretion and gallbladder contraction.

<h3>CCK secretion: What is it?</h3>

A peptide/neurotransmitter secreted by neurons of the central and peripheral nervous systems, cholecystokinin (CCK) is a hormone released by the I-cells of the upper small intestine in response to fat, protein, and some nonnutrients.
