Diets Lead to Withdrawal Symptoms
Anonymous
Posted Dec 26, 2009
YO-YO dieting may produce withdrawal symptoms similar to those
suffered by alcoholics and drug addicts, a study suggests.
Many people go on a diet only to find themselves locked into a
cycle of caloriecutting and bingeeating.
The new research on rats suggests they may be experiencing
effects in the brain seen in relapsing drug users.
One group of rats was given standard food and sugary
chocolateflavoured rations at five and two day intervals. A second
group only received standard food.
Diet-cycled rats began to turn their noses up at their "standard"
food while pouncing on the sugary treats.
