Disinhibition augments thirst perception from two dehydrating stimuli in men.

ABSTRACT: Physiological systems controlling water and energy ingestion are coordinated. Whether maladaptive eating behavior and appetite for water are linked is unknown. Thus, we sought to investigate the association between maladaptive eating and both thirst and water drinking behavior with two dehydrating conditions. Twenty-two lean men and 20 men with obesity (mean age 32.3 ± 8.4 years and 30.0 ± 11.1 years, respectively) completed the Three-Factor Eating Questionnaire (TFEQ) and Gormally Binge Eating Scale. On separate days, volunteers were dehydrated by a 2-h hypertonic saline infusion and a 24-h water deprivation, and thirst was measured on a 100-mm visual analogue scale (VAS) during each procedure. After each dehydrating condition, ad libitum water intake was measured. In the saline infusion,
