I wonder if the satiated feeling isn't from volume but from some nutrient showing up in blood or in intestinal detectors for something signaled as in short supply.

I think the satiated feeling is from your body having enough fat. Rich, heavy meals will trigger it.

Carbs cause the opposite, they trigger the need to eat more (carbs).

is that from the glycemic index being suboptimal, in the ingested carbs?
