Updated January 26, 2017. A pluot is a stone fruit, which is a hybrid between a plum and an apricot, so I think their nutritional value should be somewhat similar to the two parent fruits. Although I don't know specific amounts, I think it's a safe bet that pluots are high in vitamin C, potassium, vitamin A and fiber.
Leptin (from Greek Î»ÎµÏÏÏÏ leptos, thin), the satiety hormone, is a hormone made by adipose cells that helps to regulate energy balance by inhibiting hunger. Leptin is opposed by the actions of the hormone ghrelin, the hunger hormone.
The hormone ghrelin is secreted by the stomach and is thought to signal hunger to the brain. The hormone leptin is secreted from fat cells. When it gets to a certain level, the feeling of fullness kicks in.t least one of these was discovered accidentally, gherlin, a hormone secreted by the stomach that increases appetite. We learned of the importance of gherlin only by studying people who have had stomach bypass surgery for obesity (bariatric surgery).
