Although research on animal experiments can not be directly applied to humans, a study in mice showed excessive consumption of foods high in calories can lead to addiction in the brain response. Consumption of foods high in calories are also made in laboratory mice eat compulsively.
The researchers also found decreasing levels of dopamine receptors, the hormone in the brain that gives the sensation of feeling good and happy, in obese mice, similar to the response in the brain in humans who are addicted to drugs. This means, the brain responses of people who are addicted to drugs the same as people who like eating junk food.
"Obesity is a form of overeating impulse response. Therefore, therapy in the form of other addictions such as drug addiction, may be able to give a positive effect on junk food junkie," said Paul Kenny, researchers from the United States.
Foods that are generally classified as junk food contains calories, fat, and salt are high, beyond the ones required. Meanwhile, the beverage that accompanies the food contains a high sugar content.
