Long-term regulation processes appear to monitor fat levels and to initiate eating when fat stores fall below some optimal level.
A second mechanism, called long-term regulation, is directed toward storing away sufficient energy for possible later use should the short-term mechanism fail to adequately replenish energy expended.
Less is known about the long-term regulation of hunger motivation, but one suggestion has been that there exists in each individual a genetically programmed body-weight set point that determines how much energy is stored away as fat within the fat cells.
In contrast to common long-term regulation, the utility function here changes on a smaller time-scale.
