TY  - JOUR
AB - Purpose of review: Cravings for carbohydrates have been known about for hundreds of years but the mechanisms behind itwere unclear. This review will highlight recent advances in our knowledge of mechanisms to detectcarbohydrates in the diet.Recent findings: Recent work has begun to identify the physiological mechanisms by which carbohydrates andglucose are detected and how this drives their intake. Recently, evidence has been found forsystems that regulate carbohydrate and glucose intake via taste, hedonic, and homeostaticpathways.Summary: Identification of the physiological mechanisms that regulate carbohydrate intake will allow a betterunderstanding of how their intake is regulated and responds to changes in dietary intake. Such anunderstanding will be a key for developing a more rational approach to the development of successfulweight loss diets.
