Protein "is best at suppressing ghrelin"

It appears that high-protein foods may be better than either fats or carbohydrates at suppressing the “hunger hormone” ghrelin. Reporting in the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism, a team at University of Washington, in Seattle, say supplement drinks of each type produced a drop in ghrelin levels in the blood of research subjects, but that protein had the greatest effect over a six-hour period.
