The same biology serves crucial everyday purposes by helping the brain regulate hunger, including alcohol craving. Overeating can overstimulate this system, which in turn causes people to eat and smoke more. By temporarily blocking the body’s ability to receive these signals, experts believe they can return the system to normal. In the larger of the two studies, Dr. Jean-Pierre Despres of Laval University in Quebec City used 1036 volunteers, all with stomachs that put them at high risk for heart problems.
