Control of ghrelin secretion remains poorly understood. Other hormones that influence it's secretion include estrogen and leptin, but a comprehensive understanding of, for example, short term control of secretion from the stomach, is lacking.
You're not alone. Many Americans do not even know their own score, much less how it compares to other borrowers. But your credit score falls into one of the following broad categories. A score of 750-840 is generally considered Excellent credit. A score of 660-749 is considered Good credit. 620-659 is average credit. Anything below that is considered Poor credit, and probably indicates that you have a history of late payments or other black marks on your credit report, such as an outstanding loan or default.
A surprising number of people have a score above 700, with the largest percentage â 27%, according to some estimates â between 750-799. So, according to most sources, Americans have pretty good credit â at least enough to qualify them for the best interest rates on mortgages and credit cards. In a recent study from Experian (March 2008), the credit bureau officially calculated the national average credit score at 692. Thatâs not bad, by most standards. But, like everything else, that score is relative to what the market will bear.
