Feeding Behaviour and the Migrating Myoelectric Complex

  • Chapter
  • 85 Accesses

Abstract

Many food intake studies have been performed, concerning feeding behaviour (1,2,3), the role of the nervous system (4) or the role of some peptides (5,6,7), especially cholecystokinin (8,9,10). A wide litterature is also existing about factors of all kinds acting on the intestinal motility and the occurence of the MMC; few works however concern psychic mechanisms (11).
