Psychological considerations of food consumption (Part 1)

Main Article Content

Abstract

Eating behavior is a behavior that is related to eating habits, the selection of foods that are ingested, the preparations of the food itself and the quantities that are ingested. Eating styles, preferences and rejections towards specific foods correspond to the learning and lived experiences of the individual. There are factors that are related to eating behavior, such as personality and coping style, which can be intermediaries in eating behavior. Two guidelines are considered to identify the psychobiological factors of eating behavior based on the nutritional functions of food in the body and in the cognitive, behavioral, emotional and health processes, so this article describes four psychological components of food consumption: the link between behavior and emotions; cognitions; health and social relations and environment.
