April 2008
“CCK” (cholecystokinin) is a hormone secreted in
the GI tract when you eat a meal. It slows down
the digestive process and functions as a short-term
satiety signal to inhibit food intake and thus
decrease meal size. “Satiety” is a feeling of fullness
or satisfaction.
However, some women with PCOS have reduced
CCK secretion after a meal. Impaired CCK
secretion may play a role in the greater frequency
of binge eating and overweight in women with
PCOS.
A new product, Slentiva ™, is a chocolate-
flavored soft chew that helps to manage feelings of
hunger. It is formulated to enhance satiety (feeling
full or satisfied) and help you feel full for a longer
period of time.
Slentiva contains a natural potato skin extract that
improves the release of CCK, thus helping you
minimize the urge to eat more.
