Synopsis

Explore how hunger is controlled from the stomach up, blending physiology, nerves, and behavior.

This book delves into the nervous and muscular systems that govern hunger and stomach activity. It examines how the empty stomach can still produce hunger contractions, and how both intrinsic stomach nerves and the vagus nerve influence rhythm, tonus, and movements. Through animal studies and human observations, the text explains how sensations, thoughts, and even feeding conditions shape the hunger process.

• How nerves regulate stomach contractions and hunger rhythms


• Differences between intrinsic and extrinsic control of the stomach wall


• The role of taste, smell, and conscious states in hunger and gastric activity


• Methods to distinguish real reflex effects from coincidental changes in digestion

Ideal for readers of medical physiology and anyone curious about the science behind appetite and digestion.

A propos du livre

Présentation de l'éditeur

This book was originally published prior to 1923, and represents a reproduction of an important historical work, maintaining the same format as the original work. While some publishers have opted to apply OCR (optical character recognition) technology to the process, we believe this leads to sub-optimal results (frequent typographical errors, strange characters and confusing formatting) and does not adequately preserve the historical character of the original artifact. We believe this work is culturally important in its original archival form. While we strive to adequately clean and digitally enhance the original work, there are occasionally instances where imperfections such as blurred or missing pages, poor pictures or errant marks may have been introduced due to either the quality of the original work or the scanning process itself. Despite these occasional imperfections, we have brought it back into print as part of our ongoing global book preservation commitment, providing customers with access to the best possible historical reprints. We appreciate your understanding of these occasional imperfections, and sincerely hope you enjoy seeing the book in a format as close as possible to that intended by the original publisher.
