DMHB #40: Does Social Isolation Influence Our Reactivity To Food Cues?

Is social isolation associated with altered neural reactivity to food? Studies show that loneliness can negatively impact overall health, contributing to obesity, poor eating habits, and mental health issues. Research by Xiaobei Zhang and colleagues revealed that women with higher social isolation had higher fat mass, poorer diets, maladaptive eating behaviors, and altered brain responses to food, emphasizing the need for holistic treatments addressing psychological and social factors alongside eating behaviors.
