– Chronic sleep deprivation
– Cortisol
5 • Set point Theory:body maintains its normal weight and body fat level with internal regulatory controls that dictate how much fat one has!!
6 • Thermic Theory: low level of brown adipose tissue. Less futile cycles into heat
7 • Psychological: tendency to eat when depressed
8 • Adipocyte Theory:_______ obesity increases adipocyte number!!
9 • Socioeconomic: Affordability and availability of food
10 • Cultural: Feasting, etc
11 • Lifestyle: Snacks, football Sunday, etc
