Do vitamins increase appetite

Answer 1

Do multivitamins increase appetite?

Some observations suggest that the regular consumption of multivitamins enhances one's appetite. The question then arises whether multivitamins cause one to gain weight. While the elimination of vitamin and mineral deficiency regulates metabolism and can improve general well-being - the effects of which can be manifested in the return of one's appetite and the disappearance of chronic fatigue and lack of enthusiasm - scientific studies up to now have not reported that multivitamins improve the appetite or cause weight gain in healthy people (those not chronically malnourished or seriously ill).

I am not aware of any vitamins that will help suppress your appetite but you could try adding Metamucil or another powdered fiber to your water. Fiber is supposed to help you to feel more full, as is water, so drinking water with a powdered fiber should do the trick when you feel like snacking. I find the best way to control my appetite is to eat very small mini-meals that include a protein frequently throughout the day. Like, a can of tuna or a banana with a scoop of peanut butter.

Vitamins do not cause hunger. Hunger is the result of lack of nutrients. When that happens, your brains sends a message to your stomach, telling it to attempt to digest any food in it. The result is your stomach rumbling.

Answer 4

Appetite is a sensation that is very complex and triggered by the hypothalamus gland. Such things as low sugar concentration in the blood can cause it to signal to you that you feel hungry. The hormones that control metabolism can also influence the sensation as well. The hormone leptin suppresses hunger and another one called ghrelin makes you hungry.There is a recent discovery of PYY that also suppresses hunger.
