Article Synopsis
  • GLP-1-based therapies are useful for treating obesity and type 2 diabetes and may also help reduce alcohol-seeking behavior, but there is limited understanding of how alcohol consumption affects GLP-1 responses due to a lack of placebo-controlled studies.
  • This study examined the effects of alcohol ingestion on GLP-1 and other peptides, comparing responses in women who had undergone metabolic surgery to those who had not, finding that surgery increased blood alcohol levels and altered hormonal responses.
  • Key findings indicated that alcohol significantly reduced GLP-1 levels and altered glucose and insulin dynamics, with the surgery group experiencing a higher incidence of hypoglycemia after alcohol consumption compared to the control group.

This study investigated associations between maladaptive ingestive behaviors and weight regain in women who underwent metabolic surgery 2-10 years ago. Using a web-based survey, we assessed emotional, external, and restrained eating (Dutch Eating Behavior Questionnaire-DEBQ), food cravings (Food-Craving Inventory-FCI), and other behaviors (e.g.

Article Synopsis
  • Understanding how blood alcohol concentration (BAC) varies after alcohol consumption is crucial, with factors like body composition and alcohol elimination rates (AER) influencing these differences, particularly in obese individuals.
  • A study involving 143 women found that obesity and older age correlate with a faster AER, with obese women experiencing 52% faster AER compared to those of normal weight.
  • However, when considering fat-free mass (FFM), the predictive value of BMI diminished, and bariatric surgery did not significantly impact AER when controlling for FFM and age.
