Study links dieting to brain chemical causing overeating
Researchers at Littlemore Hospital in Oxford report that dieting lowers tryptophan delivery to the brain, reducing serotonin production and enhancing receptor sensitivity. Twelve healthy women on a 1000 calorie diet showed lower tryptophan and heightened brain receptor responsiveness, potentially triggering urges to eat. Further work is needed to map other brain systems involved.
