Hello,

There are lot of thoughts about eating variations in diabetes
and other disorders. Eating variations and disorders can be of
prime importance in pathological conditions.Although many
reson, pathological or non-pathological are thought but what
about it:-

"One way Thermogenic methods can be classified are:

Exercise associated thermogenesis (EAT) Non-exercise
associated thermogenesis (NEAT)

Based upon whether they are or are not initiated through
locomotion and intentional movement of the muscles.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Non-exercise_associated_therm-
ogenesis "

Can temperature or thermogenesis be a prime reason to eating
variations mediated by many conditions of body--physiological
or psychlogical?

Whether diabettics, who overeat, are bit hypothermic or
hypo-thermogenesis?

Insulin is said to promote thermogenesis Table 2: Endogenous
Compounds and Effect on Energy Homeostasis Compound Source
Effect apolipoprotein A-IV: Gut lipoprotein suppresses food
consumption

Bombesin Gut peptide reduces food intake and enhances
release of CCK

CCK Gut peptide acts on brain to reduce food intake

Enterostatin Pancreatic polypeptide increases satiety
following fat consumption

Insulin Pancreas hormone increases food intake; when impaired,
reduces thermogenesis

NPY Pancreatic polypetide stimulates initiation of feeding

Thyroid hormone Thyroid gland when impaired, reduces
thermogenesis http://dietitian.science.wayne.edu/stress.pdfc "
Good pdf article on Stress and Eating Behavior.

Best wishes.

"Neurotransmitters that affect feeding include the
catecholamines, norepinephrine, epinephrine, and dopamine.
Studies using these compounds showed that norepinephrine
injected into the PVH stimulated food intake, while
epinephrine and dopamine inhibited feeding when injected into
the PFR. Norepinephrine and dopamine are released by the SNS
in response to dietary intake and mediate the activity of
areas in the hypothalamus that govern feeding behavior.
Fasting and semistarvation lead to low SNS activity and
increased activity of the adrenal gland (adrenal medulla) with
a consequent increase in epinephrine.Epinephrine, in turn,
promotes substrate mobilization such as increased blood
glucose level and release of free fatty acids into blood
(34).http://dietitian.science.wayne.edu/stress.pdf "

It looks that there are many type of effects on stress. Some
may be losing the appetite other increasing it, as indicated
above. Still all may be related to increase in glucose levels.

"Eating Problems

"Stress can have varying effects on eating problems and
weight.

Weight Gain. Often stress is related to weight gain and
obesity. Many people develop cravings for salt, fat, and sugar
to counteract tension and, thus, gain weight. Weight gain can
occur even with a healthy diet, however, in some people
exposed to stress. And the weight gained is often abdominal
fat, a predictor of diabetes and heart problems.... Weight
Loss. Some people suffer a loss of appetite and lose weight...
Chronic stress has been associated with the development of

Both weight gain and weight loss due to appetite changes and
IR are indicated as a result of chronic stress.
