Diet and Interoception

Diet and Interoception (Adult Population)

The CNP Diet and Interoception Research Category consolidates research exploring the interconnected relationship between dietary intake and interoception. To view each original study on the open internet, click “Original.” To view the CNP-written abstract summary, click “CNP Summary.” While only some of the CNP-written abstract summaries are available below for free, all abstract summaries are available to CNP members through the CNP Library Membership. Interoception is one of the six elements characterizing the field of Nutritional Psychology. Interoception plays a significant role in developing our understanding of the Diet-Mental Health Relationship (DMHR). Referred to as “the eighth sense,” Interoception is our perception of the internal physiological state of our body. Interoception pertains to the receiving, encoding, and representation of internal bodily signals in the brain, as well as their perception (Ceunen et al., 2016). Interoception encompasses the non-conscious bodily signals we experience, and our conscious perception of them. NP 110: Introduction to Nutritional Psychology Methods includes curriculum in Diet and Interoception.

This study published in 2017 investigated the impacts of briefly consuming a high fat with high sucrose (HFS) diet over 4 days relative to one lower in saturated fat and added sugar, on hippocampal-dependent learning and memory (HDLM) and perception of internal bodily state (interoception). A group of healthy individuals were randomly assigned to either […]

Hargrave et. al (2016) explains that one of the roles of the hippocampus is to inhibit responding to previously rewarded cues with the use of context such as interoceptive satiety states. Constantly consuming during states of positive energy balance leads to weight gain and obesity. Research has implicated Western diets in several types of hippocampal […]
