Papers from the March 1991 symposium held at the Pennington Biomedical Research Center are grouped into four sections on energy balance; nutrient partitioning; peptides, monamines, and food intake; and taste and afferent signals for nutrient ingestion. A sampling of the topics: overfeeding and underfeeding in normal-weight young men; exercise, energy expenditure, and fat oxidation; hypothalmic-adrenal regulation of nutrient partitioning; the effect of peptides on nutrient intake.
