Mouse Study Links Overeating To Hormone Deficiency.

A new study published this week in the journal Cell Reports suggests that overeating happens when people don't have enough of a hormone called glucagon-like peptide-1, or GLP-1. The chemical is secreted from cells in both the small intestine and the brain to let our brain know when we've had enough to eat. http://www.washingtonpost.com/news/to-your-health/wp/2015/07/24/overeating-may-be-caused-by-a-hormone-deficiency-scientists-say/
