Produktbeschreibung
The inclusion of a chapter on the satiation of alcohol is unique in a book on food intake, and shows the convergence of ideas on satiation in these two areas. Comprehensive in scope and accessible to a wide array of advanced students and professonals, Satiation: From Gut to Brain is an authoritative and up-to-date review of every aspect of this important physiological process. Although intended primarily for neuroscientists, nutritionists, and psychobiologists, who will find it most pertinent to their work, the book will also be useful for physiologists, pharmacologists, and psychologists concerned with eating and its disorders.
This is the first comprehensive, critical review of all the recent evidence on the neurophysiological mechanisms of satiation. It deals with the stimuli at sites in the mouth, stomach and intestine that initiative this negative-feedback process, provides a detailed behavioral analysis, and reviews the satiating effects of cholecystokinin, bombesin-like peptides, lucogen and insulin as well as brain serotonin.
