UC Berkeley study finds obesity reduces neurotensin, a brain chemical tied to food enjoyment, potentially aiding new treatments.
Scientists at UC Berkeley found that obesity lowers levels of neurotensin, a brain chemical linked to pleasure, reducing the enjoyment of high-calorie foods and potentially worsening obesity.
However, restoring neurotensin could reinstate the pleasure in eating, aiding weight loss and combating obesity.
This discovery could lead to new treatments targeting brain mechanisms related to food enjoyment.
