Reconstruction of the drive underlying food intake and its control by leptin and dieting.


ABSTRACT: The intake of food and the expenditure of calories is modelled by a system of differential equations. The state variables are the amount of calories stored in adipose tissue and the level of plasma leptin. The model has as input a drive that controls the intake of food. This drive consists of a collective of physiological and psychological incentives to eat or to stop eating. An individual based approach is presented by which the parameters of the system can be set using data of a subject. The method of analysis is fully worked out using weight data of two persons. The model is prone to extensions by transferring incentives being part of the input to the collection of state variables.
