> Indeed it is, and the solution to managing hunger (i.e. returning your whole insulin and leptin system to a more optimal baseline) is NOT going for a 90% carbohydrate diet. Leptin system returns to a more optimal baseline with weight loss. Insulin returns to a more optimal baseline by increasing insulin sensitivity. Exercise does this most effectively, loosing weight also does this. Low carb diets don't do this directly, only through weight loss. Managing hunger is managing your dopamine response. Eating nothing but one food, will make you very bored of your food. You won't be looking for food as entertainment, stress relief, or a cure for boredom(dopamine). You will only eat for true hunger(lack of dopamine can feel similar).

>Exercise does this most effectively Curious, does it depend on the type of exercise and, if so, do we know what mechanisms cause some types to have a disproportionate impact?

  I believe that the more glycolytic the type of exercise is the greater the impact. Thus, higher intensity exercise is preferable if the goal is to improve insulin sensitivity which I reckon is a transient improvement and that a lot of it is thanks to GLUT4-translocation within the muscles in response to the exercise. This translocation means that less insulin needs to be secreted to deal with carbohydrates after training. https://scholar.google.se/scholar_url?url=https://www.researchgate.net/profile/Yutaka-Nakaya/publication/13711184_Bradykinin_directly_GLUT4_translocation_via_an_insulin-independent_pathway/links/56a6f61808ae0fd8b3fc777f/Bradykinin-directly-GLUT4-translocation-via-an-insulin-independent-pathway.pdf&hl=en&sa=X&ei=CfKBYoG8GpuVy9YP69K4iAE&scisig=AAGBfm3SAFuGanI_PZvtcao8Ul7k5Y9H0w&oi=scholarr https://scholar.google.se/scholar_url?url=https://www.resear...

Sorry but your comment is complete nonsense. Insulin reacts faster than weight loss. In fact it is so fast, every time you wake up, your insulin resistance recovers a little bit every morning after you sleep. It is entirely possible to be obese without insulin resistance and to be skinny with insulin resistance. It is completely orthogonal to weight but insulin resistance makes it much easier to gain even more weight.

  > It is completely orthogonal to weight but insulin resistance makes it much easier to gain even more weight. Insulin sensitive women on the high carb diet lost nearly double the weight as insulin sensitive women on the low-carb diet. Similarly, insulin resistant women lost twice the weight on the low-carb diet as on the high carb diet. https://bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/insulin-sensitivity-and-fat-loss#The_Impact_of_Insulin_Sensitivity_or_Secretion_on_Dietary_Response https://bodyrecomposition.com/fat-loss/insulin-sensitivity-a... > It is entirely possible to be obese without insulin resistance and to be skinny with insulin resistance.

A more precise way: A caloric deficit can also increase insulin sensitivity.
