How Sugar and Fat Affect Your Brain: What Science Reveals About Dopamine, GABA, and Cravings

Understanding how sugar and fat affect your brain is more than just a curiosity about diet and nutrition. It dives deep into the scientific underpinnings of human behavior, mental health, and even chronic disease risk. In recent years, research has revealed intricate biochemical pathways that explain why foods high in sugar and fat feel comforting, why cravings can overpower willpower, and how dietary choices may have far-reaching effects on neurotransmitters like dopamine and GABA. As scientists learn more about the brain's reward system and its interaction with nutrition, it becomes increasingly clear that what we eat profoundly impacts how we think, feel, and behave.
