Abstract in brief

  • Females and males respond differently to energy restriction and excess, with females becoming emaciated and ceasing reproductive cycles under severe caloric restriction, while males maintain weight and cognitive function.
  • Under 40% caloric restriction, females show increased stress responses, altered hormone levels, heightened activity, and improved learning and memory, whereas males exhibit less pronounced changes in these areas.
  • The study suggests that female adaptation strategies during energy scarcity—such as reproductive shutdown and enhanced cognition—may have evolved to maximize survival, potentially explaining women's vulnerability to conditions like anorexia nervosa.]
