“…Serotonin production in the biochemical process requires several nutrients that can boost its production (booster) such as the amino acid trypthopan. The amino acid Trypthopan is assisted by niacin and magnesium to synthesize serotonin, if the body lacks trypthopan intake, the production of serotonin will decrease, resulting in the appetite control (10,11).…”

“…Emotional eating is one's behavior in consuming food excessively caused by negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, and depression [1]. Some studies found that emotional eating is caused by several other factors including lifestyle such as quality of sleep, physical activity, and nutrient intake (8,9,11). A study stated that the response of negative emotions causes more excessive consumption of food when feeling sad compared to joy [2].…”

“…The amino acid Trypthopan is assisted by niacin and magnesium to synthesize serotonin. If the body lacks trypthopan intake, the production of serotonin will decrease, resulting in the appetite control [11]. Magnesium is an important cofactor of various enzymatic reactions in the body and activation of tryptophan hydroxylase to produce serotonin [12].…”

Emotional eating is one's behavior in excessive consumption of food, which is caused by negative emotions such as stress, anxiety, and depression and which can cause weight gain. Emotional eating can be affected by various factors including stress level, physical activity, and nutrients such as magnesium. This study aims at determining the relationship between stress level, physical activity, and consumption pattern of magnesium with emotional eating in overweight adolescents. This study used observational analytic method cross sectional design. Its population was overweight and obese adolescents aged 15-18 years old in Surakarta. The subjects were 122 adolescents taken by purposive sampling. Emotional eating data were collected through Eating and Appraisal Due to Emotions and Stress (EADES) questionnaire, consumption pattern of magnesium data were gathered by using non-quantitative Food Frequency Questionnaire (FFQ), and physical activity data were obtained through International Physical Activity Questionnaire (IPAQ). Relationship analysis used chi square test with IBM SPSS Statistics 20. The results of show that the stress level had a relationship with the emotional eating in overweight adolescents (p = 0.006), the physical activity had a relationship with the emotional eating in overweight adolescents (p = 0.000), and the consumption pattern of magnesium had a relationship with the emotional eating in overweight adolescents (p = 0.034). Thus, stress level, physical activity, and consumption pattern of magnesium had a relationship with emotional eating in overweight adolescents. Physical activity and consumption pattern of magnesium were the most influential variables on emotional eating in overweight adolescents by 17.8%.

This paper examines the interaction between metacognition and stress response. Specifically, the main purpose of this study is to trace the interaction between metacognition, sympathetic-parasympathetic nervous system and the basic stress-related hormones/neurotransmitters. To achieve this aim, the research seeks to address the following questions: Can metacognition regulate the stress-related hormones and the sympathetic nervous system hyperactivity? How can it contribute to the regulation of uncontrollable stress? What is the role of executive functions? Can metacognition stop the cells and neurons from degeneration and the brain from shrinking? The evidence support the hypothesis that there is a deep relationship between metacognition, stress-related hormones and autonomic nervous system. Therefore, the above finding paves the way for the design of new stress management strategies, which could implemented in family, in school and in workplace. Uncontrollable stress constitutes the “health epidemic” of our century. Mental and mood disorders, premature ageing, cognitive impairments, learning disabilities are some of the stress-related threats. There is an urgent need to focus on resilience in order to cope with stress and to stay in balance.

“…This balance is thought to increase antioxidant intake and lower glycemic load, thus contributing to a healthier lifespan [15,16]. Certain foods, particularly those incorporating complex carbohydrates, proteins, vitamin C, B vitamins, magnesium, and selenium, are thought to play an important role in stress management [17]. In a 2016 analysis of the dietary practices of pharmacy and medical students at ten schools in California, only 50% had a saturated fat intake of <10% of total kcal, 13% met their fiber intake goals, and 10% consumed greater than eight servings/day of fruit and vegetables [18].…”

Background: Wellness is an important concept for medical students to learn, both for their own health and for their patients. Since nutrition is an essential part of one's wellness that can positively or negatively impact one's health, it is important for medical students to learn approaches to nutritional wellness. Studies have shown that physicians' nutrition attitudes and clinical practices are positively correlated with their dietary practices. Objective: Here, we describe a brief nutrition-based education experience for first-year students offered at the start of the medical school curriculum that is designed to increase their nutrition awareness. Design: The nutrition experience involved five components: 1) having students complete three 24-hour food recalls; 2) comparing their recalls to nutrient standards; 3) emphasizing strategies that include simple, nutritionally sound food choices and preparation; 4) surveying students on their implementation of personal healthy nutritional strategies; and 5) requesting future recommendations for modifying the educational experience. Results: Most students' diets did not meet the recommended dietary levels for several nutrients, and these deficiencies corresponded to specific food group inadequacies. Forty percent of the students responded to a three-month follow-up survey. Of these students, 46% implemented one of the presented strategies to improve their food intake. Most changes included the addition or deletion of a particular food. Seventy-three percent recommended repeating the program in the future. Conclusions: We demonstrate that a brief 2.5-hour nutrition wellness experience can increase nutrition awareness and promote dietary change in incoming medical students. Many felt that the experience was valuable and recommended offering a similar experience to future classes.
