Study Notes
Biological Effects of Restricted Diets and The Ineffectiveness of Diets
- The gastrointestinal tract delivers energy to the body in the form of lipids, amino acids, and glucose.
- Energy metabolism is controlled by insulin and glucagon, which regulate the use and storage of glucose and release of fatty acids.
- Energy metabolism changes over three phases related to food consumption: cephalic, absorptive, and fasting phases.
- Hunger is influenced by a range of factors including energy needs, desires for vitamins and minerals, social factors, and taste preferences.
- Two theories of hunger are set-point theory and positive-incentive perspective, which propose different explanations for hunger and eating behaviors.
- Set-point theory suggests that hunger arises from an energy deficit and is alleviated by replenishing energy reserves.
- The positive-incentive perspective proposes that hunger and cravings depend on multiple factors that influence the positive incentive value of food.
- Innate taste preferences, such as sweet and fatty tastes, can steer us towards high-energy, high-nutrition foods.
- Sweet tastes produce liking responses across species, while bitter tastes produce aversive responses.
- The positive-incentive perspective suggests that hunger and cravings depend on factors such as taste, previous experience, sensory feedback, and mood.
- Unlike set-point theory, the positive-incentive perspective does not limit hunger to one single mechanism.
- Hunger can be influenced by both biological and psychological factors, and a viable theory of hunger must be flexible enough to account for these influences.
