In his article, 'Homeostatic theory of obesity', Marks suggested that imbalances in homeostatic processes could explain weight gain and obesity. He proposes that over-consumption of high-caloric, low-nutrient and low satiating foods, combined with a stressful environment, is the origin of weight gain. Once weight gain occurs, individuals may develop body dissatisfaction and negative affect, leading to continued over-consumption, which sets in motion a system of feedback loops that leads to a and further weight gain. In this article, we attempt to clarify certain problematic aspects of Marks framework and identify specific directions that researchers should pursue to address these shortcomings.
在他的文章《肥胖的稳态理论》中，马克斯认为稳态过程的失衡可以解释体重增加和肥胖问题。他提出，高热量、低营养且低饱腹感食物的过度摄入，再加上压力环境，是体重增加的根源。一旦体重增加，个体可能会产生身体不满和负面影响，从而导致持续的过度消费，这启动了一个反馈循环系统，进而导致体重进一步增加。在本文中，我们试图阐明马克斯框架中某些存在问题的方面，并确定研究人员应采取的具体方向，以解决这些不足之处。
