Neuroinflammation and Binge Eating

Abstract

The relationship between neuroinflammation and binge eating is a complex interplay involving the central nervous system. Neuroinflammatory processes, often triggered by various factors, can influence neural circuits related to appetite regulation. Elevated levels of inflammatory markers in the brain have been observed in individuals with binge eating tendencies, suggesting a potential connection between inflammation and dysregulated eating behaviors. Exploring these mechanisms can contribute to a deeper understanding of the neural basis of binge eating, offering avenues for targeted interventions and therapeutic strategies. This review delves into the connection between neuroinflammation and binge eating, its neurobiological implications, insights, and therapeutic interventions. Also, insights into potential personalized treatment approaches based on neurinflammatory markers were considered. The review concludes by stating future directions and suggesting recommendations.
