Appetites

Clearly, the physical chemistry of surfaces covers a wide range of topics. Most of these subjects are sampled in this book, with emphasis on fundamentals and important theoretical models. With each topic there is annotation of current literature with citations often chosen because they contain bibliographies that will provide detailed source material. We aim to whet the reader s appetite for surface physical chemistry and to provide the tools for basic understanding of these challenging and interesting problems. 

Actually, the problem is clear. If all of you would stop taking amphetamines you would regain your fucking appetites Here s the recipes for when you get out of detox.

Celiac Disease. A disturbance of the lower gastroiatestiaal tract, celiac disease is a chronic disease characterized by loss of appetite and weight, depression and irritabiUty, and diarrhea frequendy followed by constipation (35). One of the more disturbiag features of ceHac disease is the large, frothy, foul-smelling stools. The disease may develop ia childhood or later ia life. Frequendy, the patients who develop the disease ia adulthood report having had some of the symptoms duting childhood. 

Appetite Depressants. Fenduramine hydrochloride [404-82-0] is an anorexiant based on a meta-substituted ben2o triduo ride. 

Meg estrolAceta.te. This compound is used outside the United States as an oral contraceptive. In the United States, it is used for the paUiative treatment of breast cancer and endometrial cancer, or as an adjunct to other therapies. Its use has been associated with an increased appetite and food intake and has been evaluated in the treatment of anorexia and cachexia (107). 

Workers who produce or use lead should be aware of possible ha2ards. Symptoms of chronic lead poisoning include fatigue, headache, constipation, uneasy stomach, irritabiHty, poor appetite, metallic taste, weight loss, and loss of sleep. Most of these same symptoms also occur in many common illnesses, such as the flu, thus a physician must rely on tests, such as blood lead analysis, to determine chronic lead poisoning. 

Agriculture. Most forages provide insufficient sodium for animal feeding and may lack adequate chloride. Thus salt supplementation is a critical part of a nutritionally balanced diet for animals. In addition, because animals have a definite appetite for salt, it can be used as a deflvery mechanism to ensure adequate intake of less palatable nutrients and as a feed limiter. Salt is an excellent carrier for trace minerals. Salt, either in loose form or as compressed blocks, can be mixed with feed or fed free-choice to improve animal health and productivity (see Feeds and feed additives). 

Normally, dietary tyramine is broken down in the gastrointestinal tract by MAO and is not absorbed. In the presence of MAOI, however, all of its potent sympathomimetic actions are seen. Other side effects of MAOI include excessive CNS stimulation, orthostatic hypotension, weight gain, and in rare cases hepatotoxicity. Because the monoamine oxidase inhibitors exhibit greater toxicity, yet no greater therapeutic response than other, newer agents, clinical use has been markedly curtailed. The primary use for MAOIs is in the treatment of atypical depressions, eg, those associated with increased appetite, phobic anxiety, hypersomnolence, and fatigues, but not melancholia (2). 

Symptoms of deficiency in animals include poor appetite, stunted growth, and weight loss increased incidence of irritabihty and convulsions (tetany) some growth abnormahties decreased egg production in poultry with reduced hatchabihty and thin eggsheU quahty and birth of weak, dead, or deformed offspring in other animals. 

Insufficient zinc results in slowed growth, delayed wound healing, poor appetite, mental lethargy, and sexual immaturity and it interferes with the immune response. The main function of zinc in metaboHsm is enzymatic and there is evidence of other physiologic roles, eg, in stabilization of membrane stmcture (57). 

Appetite suppressants have been widely used as an adjunct to dietary restriction and sympathomimetic amines have traditionally been used for this purpose. These agents have not proven particularly useful and frequentiy cause unacceptable side effects, hence their popularity has been waning for several years. The most promising newer dmgs work through a serotoninergic mechanism and hold considerable promise at least for certain obese patients. 

Compounds stmcturaHy related to the endogenous sympathomimetic amines epinephrine and norepinephrine have classically been employed as appetite suppressants. These agents, of which amphetamine [300-62-9], is the prototypical example, generally retain the phenethyl amine, but lack...
