May 29, 2022. In this post I discuss the role of serotonin in the development and maintenance of eating disorders.
Key Points:
Serotonin is involved in many functions, including digestion, mood, anxiety, stress, appetite, and cardiovascular health.
Serotonin works by muting certain cells, which changes cell conversations.
People who binge eat could have low serotonin levels, while people who food restrict might have high serotonin levels.
Understanding serotonin's role in eating disorders can guide drug treatments for these illnesses.
