Is this why we have a criminal buffoon President

Thinking people around the world wonder how a loud mouthed criminal huckster became the 45th President and now researchers may have discovered part of the reason. Consuming a western diet for as little as one week can subtly impair brain function and encourage slim and otherwise healthy young people to overeat, scientists claim.

Researchers found that after seven days on a high fat, high added sugar diet, volunteers in their 20s scored worse on memory tests and found junk food more desirable immediately after they had finished a meal.

The finding suggests that a western diet makes it harder for people to regulate their appetite, and points to disruption in a brain region called the hippocampus as the possible cause.

“After a week on a western-style diet, palatable food such as snacks and chocolate becomes more desirable when you are full,” said Richard Stevenson, a professor of psychology at Macquarie University in Sydney. “This will make it harder to resist, leading you to eat more, which in turn generates more damage to the hippocampus and a vicious cycle of overeating.”

Previous work in animals has shown that junk food impairs the hippocampus, a brain region involved in memory and appetite control. It is unclear why, but one idea is that the hippocampus normally blocks or weakens memories about food when we are full, so looking at a cake does not flood the mind with memories of how nice cake can be. “When the hippocampus functions less efficiently, you do get this flood of memories, and so food is more appealing,” Stevenson said.

To investigate how the western diet affects humans, the scientists recruited 110 lean and healthy students, aged 20 to 23, who generally ate a good diet. Half were randomly assigned to a control group who ate their normal diet for a week. The other half were put on a high energy western-style diet, which featured a generous intake of Belgian waffles and fast food.

“Understanding the impact of a western diet on brain function is a matter of urgency given the current food climate,” she said. “This research has provided data to support detrimental effects on both memory and appetite control after just one week of an energy-dense diet and may suggest a link between poor diet and impairment of the hippocampus, a key memory and appetite-associated brain region. The mechanisms at work remain to be elucidated and will require further research with the application of more sophisticated neuroimaging methods.”

So in a nutshell, many Trump supporters are that way simply because they have eaten themselves stupid.

Shouldn't you show a link between Trump supporters and junk food consumption?

There are links between those in government handouts and junk food consumption...

Also... The article deals with memory.... How would that affect v****g?

This is below par for you....

It would be both simple and desirable to change programs that feed the poor so that WIC vouchers could only be used to buy healthy non processed foods. This was partially achieved through Michelle Obama’s healthy school lunch initiative which was reversed by the i***t Pumpkinfuhrer under pressure from the processed food industry. The association between garbage food consumption and brain function as a reason people v**ed for a crook like Trump is satirical, while it contributes to the rotting of American culture the real reasons Trump is allowed to crap on all good our nation stands for are far more disturbing.

No sir' that is right on par for our resident meth head.....nothing is below that 165lb mouth with nothing worthwhile to say......he is a shining example of what has tried to ruin this great country, Thank God President Trump kicked him in the last two teeth he has, and sent him into his spiral of pathetic denial.

In short, he is just a typical liberal dumbass.

The idea to limit the types of foods available to EBT cards holders is pretty much rejected by those on the left. Today, one can see signs at fast food places: "We accept EBT card". That really bothers a lot of folks who only occasionally enjoy a fast food meal.

I know, back in the day when we were students (wife and kid), McDonalds was our weekly treat.

My parents took us out once a week... But we never really developed a taste for McDonald's... Had this restaurant called Bananza with a great smorg... And an ice cream machine.. I can still remember the stomach aches....

The kids liked it. I haven't been in McD's for 20-25 years - except for an occasional cup of coffee when traveling - they do have decent coffee!!

LOL.... Your desperation is as obvious as your being q***r.

You homos will believe anything except the fact that you're losers and femin**is.

To quote Shakespeare “me thinks the lady doth protest too much” there are only two things that can explain your extreme homophobia. The first is that you are yourself homosexual and due to societal pressure in your neck of the woods have lived a closeted life and are jealous of those like you who live openly and true to themselves. The second possibility is that you were molested by a trusted uncle, father, grandfather minister or scout leader and rather than confronting it and them you hold personal shame in your victimization and attack others who remind you of the abuse because they are gay. In either case you should consider seeking counseling in the hopes of living the remainder of your life at peace with yourself.

TDS is simply the pet reply of ignorant members of the I***t Pumpkinfuhrer’s Trumpmentaly disabled cult members when faced with the t***h. You seem to regurgitate it more than most.

Simply applying the title where it it is most needed, Kevyboy.

never happen....the democrats have created a slew of single mother families, in fact...they promote it.

This would cause these unwed mother to actually prepare a meal, most are unable to cook anything more than mac & cheese from a box, or some microwave garbage....this generations parents rarely cooked, those sk**ls are mostly lost today.

We would have to go back and actually make home economics, home economics again...not what it currently is with no kitchen sk**ls involved......from my last daughter it appears it is nothing more than a class to carry around a f**e baby that cries........more of that promoting single mom on the system garbage.

Trump doesn’t live in my brain, he is simply an annoying boil on the ass of every American patriot, a boil that we will lance in November.
