Dietary sugar inhibits satiation by decreasing the central processing of sweet taste

While consuming diets high in sugar and fats lower taste sensations, alters food choices, and facilitates feeding, May et al. (2020) planned to find out how these changes influence eating by using a genetically tractable (modifiable) organism called D. melanogaster. The scientists monitored the activity of a specific set of neurons in the organism referred […]

Adherence to unhealthy diets is associated with altered frontal gamma-aminobutyric acid and glutamate concentrations and grey matter volume: preliminary findings

This study by Hepsomali et al. (2024) investigated the relationship between diet quality and neurobiological factors, as well as their associations with common mental disorders (CMD) and rumination in adults, focusing on the frontal cortex. Reduced grey matter volume (GMV) in regions involved in CMD pathology and abnormalities in excitatory/inhibitory (E/I) activity in the frontal […]
