\"\"<\/a>Renowned Princeton<\/a><\/strong> physiological psychologist and researcher Bart Hoebel has died at the age of 76. He was a leader in research on eating behaviors and the addictive qualities of food. He seems to have been a professor that invested in his students, and we hope that some of them will continue his research in his absence.<\/p>\n

Below are just some highlights of what Dr. Hoebel’s research has taught us.<\/p>\n

Sugar is addictive<\/a><\/strong> and affects brain functions the same way as cocaine and heroin.<\/p>\n

High-fructose corn syrup<\/a><\/strong> leads to more weight gain\u00a0than ingesting the same amount of calories via traditional sugar. It also causes abnormal increases in body fat, particularly in the belly, and triglycerides.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The same chemical in the brain that triggers cravings for alcohol also triggers cravings for fatty foods<\/a><\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The physical effects<\/a><\/strong> of a sugar binge differ from those of a fat binge.<\/p>\n
