Stress and Obesity: Are There More Susceptible Individuals?

Current obesity reports - 1 Jun 2018

van der Valk Eline S, Savas Mesut, van Rossum Elisabeth F C

Abstract excerpt

PURPOSE OF REVIEW: Stress has long been suspected to be interrelated to (abdominal) obesity. However, interindividual differences in this complex relationship exist. We suggest that the extent of glucocorticoid action partly explains these interindividual differences. We provide latest insights with respect to multiple types of stressors. RECENT FINDINGS: Increased long-term cortisol levels, as measured in scalp...
