Revealed: The Reason Why We Overeat Even If We're Full...
Dear Reader,
Have you ever wondered why you keep eating and eating a favorite food when your stomach is about to burst it's so full? A team of Italian scientists from the University of Naples has found that when you eat for pleasure instead of real hunger, reward chemicals in the brain become activated and causes us to want foods based on how they taste, not how nutritious they might be. So that delightful dessert favorite will tempt you to eat more than you can hold - willpower or not.
The intriguing new study, led by Dr. Palmiero Monteleone from the department of psychiatry at the University of Naples SUN in Italy, examined what is known as hedonic hunger and was small, having only 8 subjects. Even the study authors agree that the findings are preliminary.
Still, they think they've identified a physiological link between indulging in treats beyond the point of caloric need and a jump in two key substances in reaction to this. One of the substances, ghrelin is a hormone that's produced by the stomach and helps regulate both reward and motivation. The second is called 2-AG (2-arachidonoylglycerol) and is also involved with appetite.
The work focused on three healthy men and five healthy women who were between 21 and 33 years old. None of them were overweight or obese, or had any dieting or binge-eating behaviors. Each subject performed two eating tests, one a month apart from the other.
At the first test the subjects ate a delicious tasting 300-calorie breakfast that was 77% carbs, 10% protein and 13% fat. After the meals the subjects rated their level of hunger and waited an hour before being presented with the same tasty breakfast. For five minutes the subjects could only see and smell the food, and were asked to describe how hungry they were, about their urge to eat and how much they planned to eat.
The second test was just like the first, except that the subjects were offered an unappetizing food - a sugarless combination of bread, milk and butter that had the same nutrient makeup as the delicious item they'd eaten the first time. Despite feeling full after both meals, the participants reported the urge to eat, and the amount they planned to ingest was much higher when thinking about the tasty food as a opposed to the unappetizing one. Blood tests found that when subjects ate their favorite foods, the blood levels of hormone ghrelin went up a lot, and stayed at this high level for up to 2 hours. The levels of ghrelin went down after eating the unappetizing foods.
The levels of 2-AG went down after eating both the tasty and less flavorful options,
but the levels stayed much higher after the exposure to and intake of a tastier
food when compared to levels for the non-favorite. This may well play an important
part in the cycle of overeating and obesity.

Revealed: The Reason Why We Overeat Even If We're Full... Continued...
What we may be seeing here is an evolutionary thing... we're drawing on long
ago impulses to stuff ourselves for the lean times to come. Put that into an
environment where food is easy to come by and affordable, provided in over-large
portions and you can see where things could go wrong. There is still much work
to be done before anyone fully understands these processes. But as we do, science
may learn more about the underpinnings of the obesity epidemic.
Remember too that idea of eating for fun... and not for need... is a relatively
new one in human history. Most of our efforts in the past were focused on a basic
struggle to get enough to eat, but not anymore. Now we can simply drive up, order
and be on our way. Hunger has little to do with it, though there are many other
drives that might help to explain the way we approach food.
The research appears in the June 2012 issue of the Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism.
