Effects of Dietary Macronutrient Content on the Sensation of Fullness

The feeling of fullness experienced after food intake is given by gastric distension, which is sensed by mechanoreceptor neurons in the stomach and later relayed, via the vagus nerve, to sites in the central nervous system that mediate ingestive behavior. Satiation is, therefore, affected by the volume of food ingested, but changes in gastric relaxation…

Can Levels of Essential Fatty Acids Predict Risk for Psychosis?

Recent studies demonstrate a critical role of fatty acids in the structure and function of the developing nervous system. Essential fatty acids (EFAs), omega-3s in particular, are an absolute requirement for a healthy brain, as they are involved in the composition of neural membranes and in the production of neurotransmitters. Their role in psychiatric and cognitive…

Glucose Uptake in Skeletal Muscle Changes with Aging

Adequate muscle activation and force are necessary to fulfill daily tasks, yet these exercises become increasingly difficult as a person ages. Skeletal muscle activity may be evaluated through electromyography (EMG), a tecnique performed to detect the electrical potential generated by muscle cells when they are electrically or neurologically activated. Studies using EMG show that spatial activation in muscles is not uniform…
