The Science of Appetite

September 18th, 2007

When you start to crave a fresh out of the oven, chocolate covered donut, do you ever stop to think why?  Or are all of your thoughts based on finding the nearest Krispy Kreme?  A Special Health Report from Time Magazine covers “The Way We Eat”, which researchers explore the reasons behind why we eat. 

Included in the research are stories on cravings and why we are “hardwired” to crave the wrong things.  Not only can you get insight on the scientific reasons for these longings, but get tips on how to stop them.  Also more information on the “Big Three”- three of the most popular fad diets. 

This special report is definitely worthy of exploring.  Learn more about the science behind your appetite and the next time you want to visit the local donut shop, you will be more aware of why!
