Autophagy in the hypothalamus regulates food intake by modulating the expression of AgRP neurons in response to starvation and free fatty acid levels.

Fasting triggers a brain-based hunger signal (AgRP) that is dependent on the brain's ability to recycle stored fat (lipophagy). If you are trying to fast, ensuring your brain's autophagy is functioning may help manage hunger cues. However, this is a complex neural process and not something that can be directly 'controlled' by diet alone.
