I think there are receptors in your small intestine that are sensitive to amino acids, lipids, and small sugars; gastrin is released when these receptors are activated. Also, distension of the stomach also causes gastrin secretion.

What hormone regulates gastric secretion during the cephalic phase of digestion?
Gastrin, which is secreted by the enteroendocrine cells of the stomach. Gastrin stimulates the secretion of hydrochloric acid and pepsin; induces contraction of the lower oesophagus; mildly increases the motility of the GI tract; and relaxes the pyloric sphincter.
How is gastric acid produced?
Gastrin is a hormone released by "g" cells in the stomach. This hormone stimulates gastric secretions, including hydrochloric acid (HCL). The release of gastrin is initiated by: distention of the stomach impulses from the vagus nerve as from sight or smell of food presence of liquids or partially digested proteins in the stomach I hope this answers the question!

What substances functions to control the release of hydrochloric acid to prevent excessive acidity?
I was looking for the answer to this too, and found that Gastrin (a hormone of the stomach) stimulates hydrochloric acid to be released to maintain the appropriate pH level. Are you in the same nutriton class as me? haha cause this is a quiz question for mine.
Where is ghrelin produced?
Ghrelin is produced in the stomach and small intestine.
How does your body make hydrochloric acid in your stomach?
As protein enters the stomach, it binds to hydrogen ions, which lowers the pH of the stomach to around pH 1-3. Inhibition of gastrin and HCl secretion is lifted. This triggers G cells to release gastrin, which in turn stimulates parietal cells to secrete HCl. HCl release is also triggered by acetylcholine and histamine.
