Experiences of stigma in a variety of domains in addition to weight may intersect to exacerbate these outcomes. Participants in two samples (one of 327 women and men from the general population and one of 128 female university students) reported experiences of devaluation on three body size and eight non-body size-related characteristics (referred to as multiple devaluation experience or MDE) and completed assessments of emotional eating (EE), feeling fat, weight self-stigma, impulsivity, and irrational beliefs. Participants were also asked to rate their body weight. MDE was correlated with elevated weight self-devaluation and anticipation of weight stigma, negative EE (NEE), feeling fat, and impulsivity in both men and women. None of these measures moderated the relationship between MDE and EE. The positive relationship between MDE and NEE was mediated by anticipated weight stigma only in women in the general population sample at higher levels of irrational beliefs. The positive relationship between MDE and body mass index (BMI) was mediated by NEE in women in the general population. The positive relationship between MDE and perceived body weight was mediated by feeling fat in women in both samples. These results suggest that women's experiences of stigma may increase anticipation of ongoing stigma, prompting NEE and resulting in elevated BMI. The results also suggest that feelings of fatness could lead to an elevation of women's perceived body weight, which in prospective studies is linked to later elevation of actual weight.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":242,"journal":{"name":"Appetite","volume":"206 ","pages":"Article 107816"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142826550","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

One of these changes is for people to consume sustainable diets, which are healthy, do not place overwhelming strain on the environment, and are culturally and socially acceptable and economically attainable. One facet of such diets is that people in countries where meat is consumed in large quantities may need to reduce their intake. A 2013/14 study suggested that people were unaware of the link between diet and climate change, the need to change diets for environmental reasons and were reluctant to reduce meat eating. We sought to investigate whether people's views on the topic had changed since then by repeating focus groups with 60 participants, revisiting the same geographic areas as the original study, and ensuring rural/urban areas and levels of deprivation remained constant. We solicited people's understanding of sustainable diets and their willingness to adopt them. We found that awareness had increased, albeit not evenly among socioeconomic groups.

There was more apparent willingness to reduce meat consumption, but many of the perceived and experienced barriers persisted that people claimed impeded them from doing so.

The present work tests this idea using two feeding paradigms that offer a highly palatable food on a time-limited basis, together with continual access to a low palatability food. This approach provides a natural separation between periods of eating that are primarily homeostatic vs. hedonically regulated. First, the impact of acute stress exposure on feeding behavior was tested using an acute “meal-dessert” paradigm. When fasted adult male rats were given a recent stressor of moderate intensity (restraint), refeeding with a chow-meal was reduced, without affecting chocolate-dessert intake, thereby increasing the proportion of calories derived from chocolate. Next, the effect of chronic moderate stress was tested using a “binge” eating paradigm. Chow-fed rats were given unexpected (3d per week) vs. expected (7d per week) brief access to a highly palatable high-fat diet (HFD), and feeding behavior was compared to control groups that were maintained with continuous access to only chow or only HFD. Chronic stress reduced total caloric intake in all groups, including binge-like HFD intake. Binge-like HFD intake caused metabolic dysfunction (increased adiposity and impaired glucose homeostasis) to an extent beyond that predicted by total caloric intake or body weight gain. Finally, binge-like HFD intake shifted stress coping behavior from an active to a passive phenotype, particularly in rats receiving concurrent chronic stress, suggesting the possibility of increased risk for stress-related disorders, like depression, in individuals who binge eat during stress.</div></div>","PeriodicalId":242,"journal":{"name":"Appetite","volume":"206 ","pages":"Article 107791"},"PeriodicalIF":4.6,"publicationDate":"2025-02-01","publicationTypes":"Journal Article","fieldsOfStudy":null,"isOpenAccess":false,"openAccessPdf":"","citationCount":null,"resultStr":null,"platform":"Semanticscholar","paperid":"142749714","PeriodicalName":null,"FirstCategoryId":null,"ListUrlMain":null,"RegionNum":2,"RegionCategory":"医学","ArticlePicture":[],"TitleCN":null,"AbstractTextCN":null,"PMCID":"","EPubDate":null,"PubModel":null,"JCR":null,"JCRName":null,"Score":null,"Total":0}

Few reports attempt to explain the behavior of the Argentinian population regarding these products. This study explored the knowledge, attitudes, and perceptions of meat analogues and hybrid products through a national online survey (N = 2339). Also, barriers and drivers to their consumption as well as the target segments were identified. Participants were classified as omnivores 73.8%, flexitarians 19.5%, vegetarians 6%, and vegans 0.7%. Despite the significant lack of awareness about PBMAs, there is a strong willingness to adopt them, with females, younger respondents, and those with lower incomes more open to these options. The main drivers for consumption were health concerns, animal welfare, and environmental awareness. Familiarity was a key factor influencing the adoption, as evidenced by the openness of well-informed omnivores. Lack of available options represented the main limitation for consumption and distrust regarding their origin and sensory appeal were the primary reasons for rejection. This study reveals a potential market for PBMAs in Argentina, highlighting that guaranteeing nutritional and sensory quality is crucial.
