If you’ve ever felt powerless around food, it’s not because you’re lacking discipline. It’s because your hunger hormones are in the driver’s seat.Behind the scenes, hunger hormones like ghrelin, leptin, cortisol, and insulin are constantly working to regulate your appetite and energy. But when things like poor sleep, skipped meals, or a diet heavy in processed foods throw those hormones off balance, it can feel like your cravings are calling the shots.That’s exactly why I created the FREE 3-Day Hunger Hormone Reset Mini Video Series—to help you stop blaming yourself and start working with your hormones instead of against them.This episode gives you a sneak peek into one key player: ghrelin, your body's internal food radar. We’ll explore why it ramps up cravings, how to calm it, and how one simple breakfast swap helped one patient bring their pre-diabetic A1C back into a healthy range.ReferencesGet Your FREE 3-Day Hunger Hormone Reset Mini Video SeriesAudio Stamps01:32 - Dr. Rentea introduces her FREE 3-Day Hunger Hormone Reset Mini Video Series, which condenses a decade of experience into three short videos and PDF guide.04:10 - Today’s episode focuses on the hunger hormone ghrelin, which drives hunger and heightens food awareness.05:33 - Discover three key factors which can increase ghrelin levels.07:42 - Learn why prioritizing protein at breakfast (and every meal) is crucial for managing hunger hormones.10:00 - The difference between eating at early hunger versus late hunger and why timing matters.11:23 - Additional strategies like food pairing and reducing ultra-processed foods to optimize ghrelin.All of the information on this podcast is for general informational purposes only.
