Compared to normal-weight children, obese children

Question

Quizplus · Accepted Answer

Obese children have been shown to have a reduced sensitivity to internal hunger cues, which may contribute to overeating and weight gain. Research suggests that they may also have an overactive reward system in response to food, making them less responsive to external stimuli associated with food. However, there is no evidence to suggest that obese children eat slower or chew more thoroughly than normal-weight children.
