A new study has discovered how an immune system molecule hijacks a brain circuit and reduces appetite when you are inflicted with an illness.
A recent study done by Lund University in Sweden states that eating a special mixture of dietary fibres found in barley can help reduce appetite and blood sugar levels.
While increased stress can result in reduced appetite at first, long-term and chronic stress may eventually make you binge on fatty foods. This phenomenon is commonly referred to as stress induced weight gain.
According to a recent study published in the journal, 'Neurobiology of Aging', high levels of a satiety hormone that reduces appetite could decrease a person's likelihood of developing Alzheimer's disease by 65 per cent.
