claimGlucocorticoids are implicated in processes related to energy balance, which determines responses to energetic demand (allostatic load) and influences subsequent physiology and behavior associated with coping.
claimIndirect life-history factors (LPFs) do not constitute a direct threat to energy balance because they are typically brief, such as predation attempts, social challenges, or sudden extreme weather events, but they may elicit a glucocorticoid response that contributes to ELHS activation.
claimIndirect LPFs (Life-history-related Physiological Factors) do not constitute a direct threat to energy balance because they are typically brief, such as predation attempts, social challenges, or sudden extreme weather events.
The Energy Homeostasis Principle: A Naturalistic Approach to ... frontiersin.org 2 facts
claimA neural network in equilibrium loses its energy balance when driven by external stimuli, causing the energy imbalance to propagate through the network according to its structural constraints.
claimWithin a neural network, local mechanisms of single neurons are triggered to couple with increased energy demand, and the actions taken by the entire organism and individual cells allow a new energy equilibrium to be achieved, resulting in a novel functional neural structure associated with a novel behavior.

referenceEnergy balance in the human body is primarily regulated by the central nervous system, specifically the neuroendocrine center in the hypothalamus and the solitary nucleus in the upper brainstem (Matafome and Seica 2017).
claimObese patients often exhibit a state of hedonism where they consume food beyond energy balance for sensory pleasure, even when energy reserves are sufficient, contrasting with the normal dynamic balance of foraging behavior (Rossi and Stuber 2018).

claimRising rates of obesity associated with lifestyle modernization are driven by shifts in energy balance and diet composition, rather than simply being the product of greater energy intakes.
