Effects of Chronic Social Stress on Obesity
Open accessAbstract
The prevalence of overweight and obesity has markedly increased during the past few decades. Stress has been suggested as one environmental factor that may contribute to the development of obesity. In this review, we discuss the role that exposure to chronic stress may play in the development of obesity, with particular attention to the effects of chronic psychosocial stress. Of particular importance is the effect that social stress has on dietary preference, food consumption, and regional distribution of adipose tissue. We present evidence from human and animal studies that links sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis hyperactivity with visceral obesity, and that stress tends to alter the pattern of food consumption, and promotes craving of nutrient-dense "comfort foods." Lastly, we discuss the visible burrow system, a model of chronic social stress used in our laboratory to assess the effects of social subordination on behavioral and metabolic profile.

Chronic stress may promote obesity development through the sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic-pituitary-adrenal axis activation that elevates cortisol levels, interferes with insulin sensitivity, promotes energy storage, and creates food cravings for ultraprocessed "comfort foods".
“Mental stress should be addressed among individuals with obesity, as chronic stress may promote obesity development through the sympathetic nervous system and hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis activation that elevates cortisol levels, interferes with insulin sensitivity, promotes energy storage, and creates food cravings for ultraprocessed “comfort foods” [189]”

About these checks
Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.
Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.
Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
