  •  
    could the anti-depressant industry in children and adolescents be a scam?  A review of the evidence finds very low quality of evidence with > 56% of the studies being funded by the industry itself; can you say conflict of interest or potential bias?  Review finds evidence only that fluoxetine is more effective than placebo in children and adolescents with depression.

Brain dopamine and obesity : The Lancet - 0 views

  •  
    Dopamine found to be inversely associated with BMI.  The higher the BMI, the lower the dopamine levels.  This low dopamine would result in a proposed "pathological eating".  As dopamine is the "pleasure" neurotransmitter, it would be easy to see how low dopamine would result in overeating.
