Feed-forward mechanisms: Addiction-like behavioral and molecular adaptations in overeating

Graphical abstract Highlights ► Palatable food promotes overeating and weight gain in humans and experimental animals. ► We review evidence for palatability-induced chronic adaptations in reward processing. ► We show that these changes act in a feed-forward manner to promote further overeating. ► Th...

Zusammenfassung:Graphical abstract Highlights ► Palatable food promotes overeating and weight gain in humans and experimental animals. ► We review evidence for palatability-induced chronic adaptations in reward processing. ► We show that these changes act in a feed-forward manner to promote further overeating. ► They contribute to addictive-like eating behavior during withdrawal from palatability. ► This explains why overeating and obesity are oftentimes lifelong adverse conditions.
