Abstract in brief

  • Highly processed foods, particularly those high in fat and glycemic load (GL), may exhibit addictiveness similar to drugs of abuse due to their rapid absorption and concentrated composition.
  • Two studies were conducted involving undergraduates and participants from Amazon MTurk to assess which foods are linked to addictive-like eating behaviors, using tools like the Yale Food Addiction Scale (YFAS).
  • Results indicate that processed foods with high fat content and GL are more strongly associated with addictive-like eating, with individual factors like BMI also playing a role in this relationship.

And this brings us to the evidence on cravings/addiction. The most common trigger is foods that are calorie-dense combinations of fat & carbohydrate, the two primary energy-supplying nutrients. https://t.co/DxurOqx7st https://t.co/sn8JQjmQc2 https://t.co/ZSqp2C2JJ2

@LowCarbEyeDoc @BioLayne Here’s a couple interesting studies. I know the debate is always carbs/fats, but to me certain combinations including both are easiest to overeat. I don’t overeat bread or butter alone, but bread and butter? Oh yeah https://t.co/9fAFTyAyDx https://t.co/XgvtDYmRfI

Processed foods share pharmacokinetic properties (e.g. concentrated dose, rapid rate of absorption) with drugs of abuse, due to the addition of fat and/or refined carbohydrates and the rapid rate the refined carbohydrates are absorbed into the system.. https://t.co/Ugg9ZqI87F

@SarahGrynpas The literature suggests highly-processed foods, which are typically a combination of refined carbs and fats lead to the most problematic eating, which people associate with "addictive-like" behaviors. https://t.co/M3r8MAlHAY

@SpencrGreenberg I would argue that many modern foods are superstimuli. Concentrated combinations of fat and carbohydrate tend to be most commonly associated w cravings & "addiction". Corresponds with predicted impact on dopamine release. https://t.co/ZSqp2C2JJ2
