“…Indeed, there are reports concerning the effect of stress on the thresholds of prototypical tastants (Nakagawa et al 1996;Heath et al 2006;Al'Absi et al 2012;Ileri-Gurel et al 2013;Parker et al 2014). Moreover, our results also do not disprove the possibility of a significant association between the threshold of prototypical tastants and the four questions regarding stress management used in the present study (Table 3) in healthy young adult women; sex has a powerful influence on lifestyle habits, such as impulsive eating when irritated or worried (Kuriyama and Shibasaki 2004;Klatzkin et al 2018).…”

“…The existence of these opposite patterns of food intake is considered to be a result of changes in the stress reactivity of the HPA-axis with chronic stress accompanied by hormonal changes in the body. Chronic stress may ultimately disrupt the regulatory effects of the HPA axis on stress-induced eating (Klatzkin et al 2018). The blunted HPA-axis stress reactivity (typically indicated by low cortisol level) is suggested to be associated with stress-induced emotional eating in both animal and human studies (van Strien et al 2013;Bast and Berry 2014).…”

Oral fat sensitivity (OFS), the ability to taste fat, is associated with eating habits in humans, including daily fatty food consumption; namely, proper OFS is important for health. In addition, lifestyle factors, such as stress and sleep, may affect fat intake. However, correlations between OFS, stress management, and sleep are largely unknown. Thus, we investigated the associations of OFS with lifestyle factors regarding stress management and daytime sleepiness in healthy young adult men. We measured OFS, sensitivities for three prototypical tastes (sweet, salty, and sour), and BMI in 22 subjects (27.2 ± 6.0 years), who also completed a self-reported questionnaire on health, including lifestyle-related questions. The correlations of taste sensitivities with stress management and daytime sleepiness were analyzed. We thus found that the number of mentors for personal concerns (a question regarding stress management, social support) was positively associated with OFS (P = 0.041), but not the other taste sensitivities. In contrast, other lifestyle factors related to stress management (frequency of relaxation, frequency of eating when irritated or worried, and degree of satisfaction with one's sleep) and daytime sleepiness were not significantly associated with OFS, similar to that observed for other tested taste sensitivities. These results characterize the unique association of OFS with the degree of social support in healthy young men and provide novel insights into the nature of individual OFS differences. Thus, measuring the degree of social support may be helpful for the evaluation of OFS impairment, thereby contributing to the prevention of stress-induced overeating.

“…Following acute psychosocial (that is, TSST) or physical (that is, cold pressor task) stress, women who binge eat rated foods as more palatable 67 , displayed increased motivation toward food 68, 70, 71 , and showed an increased desire to binge eat 71 compared with non-stressed BED and control women. Food intake 72– 74 and BE 75, 76 also increase following exposure to acute stress in women who binge eat compared with control women. Elevated basal cortisol levels 69, 77– 80 and a blunted acute stress response 81, 82 , indicative of chronic stress exposure and altered HPA-axis responses, are also observed in women who binge eat 18 .…”

Stress as a potential moderator of ovarian hormone influences on binge eating in women

Previous research has demonstrated significant associations between increased levels of ovarian hormones and increased rates of binge eating (BE) in women. However, whereas all women experience fluctuations in ovarian hormones across the menstrual cycle, not all women binge eat in response to these fluctuations, suggesting that other factors must contribute. Stress is one potential contributing factor. Specifically, it may be that hormone-BE associations are stronger in women who experience high levels of stress, particularly as stress has been shown to be a precipitant to BE episodes in women. To date, no studies have directly examined stress as a moderator of hormone-BE associations, but indirect data (that is, associations between BE and stress and between ovarian hormones and stress) could provide initial clues about moderating effects. Given the above, the purpose of this narrative review was to evaluate these indirect data and their promise for understanding the role of stress in hormone-BE associations. Studies examining associations between all three phenotypes (that is, ovarian hormones, stress, and BE) in animals and humans were reviewed to provide the most thorough and up-to-date review of the literature on the potential moderating effects of stress on ovarian hormone–BE associations. Overall, current evidence suggests that associations between hormones and BE may be stronger in women with high stress levels, possibly via altered hypothalamic–pituitary–adrenal axis response to stress and increased sensitivity to and altered effects of ovarian hormones during stress. Additional studies are necessary to directly examine stress as a moderator of ovarian hormone–BE associations and identify the mechanisms underlying these effects.

“…In addition, these few studies reveal contradictory results 33 , 68 – 70 . What is more, comparable experimental research on psychosocial stress has focused on bulimia nervosa, being eating disorder (e.g., 68 , 71 ), or mixed groups 33 , 69 , 72 , while outcomes specific to P AN have received little attention. In addition, disorder-specific samples of anorectic adults are still limited in terms of availability as well as in size (e.g., 33 , 69 ) and there is no clear consensus emerging from these studies.…”

Cortisol reactivity in patients with anorexia nervosa after stress induction

There is a need of experimental studies on biomarkers in patients with anorexia nervosa (P AN), especially in the context of stress, in order to foster understanding in illness maintenance. To this end, the cortisol response to an acute stressor was investigated in n = 26 P AN (BMI: 19.3 ± 3.4 kg/m 2), age, and gender matched to n = 26 healthy controls (HC; BMI: 23.08 ± 3.3 kg/m 2). For this purpose, salivary cortisol parameters were assessed in two experimental conditions: (1) rest/ no intervention and (2) stress intervention (TSST; Trier Social Stress Test). In addition, psychological indicators of stress were assessed (Primary Appraisal Secondary Appraisal, Visual Analogue Scale, and Trier Inventory for the assessment of Chronic Stress), as well as psychological distress, depression, and eating disorder (ED) symptoms. A 2 × 2 × 8 ANOVA demonstrated elevated cortisol levels in P AN in the resting condition. In the stress intervention no significant group effect in terms of cortisol (F (1, 50) = 0.69; p = 0.410; η 2 p ¼ 0:014). A significant condition (F (1, 50) = 20.50; p = 0.000; η 2 p ¼ 0:291) and time effect (F(2.71, 135.44) = 11.27; p = 0.000; η 2 p ¼ 0:20) were revealed, as well as two significant interaction effects. First: Condition × group (F (1, 50) = 4.17, p = 0.046; η 2 p ¼ 0:077) and second: Condition × time (F (2.71, 135.44) = 16.07, p = 0.000, η 2 p ¼ 0:24:). In terms of AUC G , no significant differences between both groups were exhibited. Regardless, significant results were evinced in terms of an increase (AUC i : F(1, 50) = 20.66, p = 0.015, η 2 p ¼ 0:113), baseline to peak (+20 min post-TSST: t 5 = 16.51 (9.02), p = 0.029) and reactivity (M PAN = 0.73 vs. M HC = 4.25, p = 0.036). In addition, a significant correlation between AUC G and BMI: r (24) = −0.42, p = 0.027 was demonstrated, but not between AUC i and BMI (r (24) = −0.26, p = 0.20). Psychological indices suggested higher levels of chronic and perceived stress in P AN relative to HC. However, stress perception in the stress condition (VAS) was comparable. Additional analyses demonstrated that ED-symptoms are highly correlated with psychological distress and depression, but not with BMI. In addition, it could be demonstrated that reactivity is rather related to EDsymptoms and psychological burden than to BMI. In conclusion, P AN showed elevated basal cortisol levels at rest and exhibited a blunted cortisol reactivity to the TSST as evinced by salivary cortisol parameters. Further, it was shown that weight recovery influences reversibility of hypercortisolemia, i.e., cortisol levels normalize with weight gain. However, HPAA (hypothalamus-pituitary-adrenal axis) irregularities in terms of reactivity persist even at a BMI ≤ 19.3 (±3.4). Our data suggest that pronounced psychological burden in P AN , have a greater impact on the HPAA functionality (secondary to the ED) than BMI itself.
