SummaryIn this paper, we consider the concept of food addiction from a clinical
and neuroscientific perspective. Food addiction has an established and growing
currency in the context of models of overeating and obesity, and its acceptance
shapes debate and research. However, we argue that the evidence for its
existence in humans is actually rather limited and, in addition, there are
fundamental th... hiện toàn bộ
The mechanism of effect of growth hormone on preadipocyte and adipocyte functionObesity Reviews - Tập 1 Số 2 - Trang 73-86 - 2000

of the lipolytic activity of adipose tissue in combination with a reduction of
triglyceride accumulation via inhibition of lipoprotein lipase activity appears
to be the ma... hiện toàn bộ
