Abstract
In edible dormice, Glis glis, cyclic infradian variations in body weight, normal ad lib food intake, and thresholds for lateral hypothalamic electrically induced feeding were compared over a 4 month period. At times when normal food intake was high, it was more difficult to obtain electrically induced feeding. No clear relationship was found between body weight and thresholds for induced feeding. These results suggest that the two types of feeding are not controlled in a similar way, and that negative feedback from the consequences of normal ad lib ingestion subsequently depresses electrically induced feeding but not normal feeding.
