The brain, appetite, and obesity.

Annual review of psychology - 1 Jan 2008

Berthoud Hans-Rudolf, Morrison Christopher

Abstract excerpt

Food intake and energy expenditure are controlled by complex, redundant, and distributed neural systems that reflect the fundamental biological importance of adequate nutrient supply and energy balance. Much progress has been made in identifying the various hormonal and neural mechanisms by which the brain informs itself about availability of ingested and stored nutrients and, in turn, generates behavioral,...
