“…Although our female subjects had iron intakes below recommendations, they were the same as the general population (Hercberg et al, 1991) (10 mg=day). In this respect, Herbeth et al (1988) have shown that moderate and heavy drinkers (88 -200 g=day) consume more meat and meat products, and thus have higher intakes of iron than do controls. It is also in accordance with homeless in London whose iron intakes were lower than in our series, as were their alcohol intakes .…”

OBJECTIVE: To determine nutritional intake and vitamin status in a sample of homeless people who had been on the streets of Paris for more than 2 y. DESIGN: The nutritional status was evaluated by a 24 h recall questionnaire and by assay of circulating levels of vitamins A, B 1 , B 6 , B 12 , C and E. SETTING: The study was conducted in four accommodation centres of the SAMU Social of Paris (CHUSI units) from July 1999 to May 2000. SUBJECTS: A total of 329 homeless people were interviewed. Only 87 subjects, aged 26 -76 y, were recruited based on seven selection criteria (over 18 y old, being homeless for more than 2 y, interviewed before taking a meal in the CHUSI units, good understanding of French, in a calm state, not coming from hospital or another CHUSI units, without any acute condition that might affect usual dietary habits), and completed the dietary questionnaire. Out of these 87, 71 agreed to blood sampling. RESULTS: In all 84% of the subjects declared that they drank alcoholic beverages regularly (175 AE 167 g=day of alcohol), and 75.5% of the subjects also declared that they smoked. The mean total energy intake was 2111 AE 1482 kcal=day for the men (8823.98 AE 6194.76 kJ=day) and 1523 AE 531 kcal=day for the women (6366.14 AE 2219.58 kJ=day). Alcohol accounted for 44 AE 30% and 19 AE 17% of the total energy intakes (TEI) for the men and women, respectively. Proteins, lipids and carbohydrates accounted for 21 AE 9, 23 AE 14 and 57 AE 16%, respectively, of the energy intake without alcohol for men, and 15 AE 5, 22 AE 11 and 62 AE 14% EIWA for women. For all micronutrients, except for iron in the men, more than 50% of the population studied had intakes below the French recommendations for the adult population. All the women had calcium, vitamin E and vitamin B 1 intakes below the recommendations for French women (900, 12 and 1.3 mg=day, respectively) in the general population. For the men, 98.7, 96.1 and 93.5% of the subjects had vitamin E, B 1 and C intakes below the recommendations for French males in the general population (12, 1.5 and 80 mg=day, respectively). It is of note that subjects who ate in the CHUSI units more than once a day per week had significantly (P ¼ 0.018) higher intakes of vitamin C (27 AE 38 mg=day) than did the subjects who ate in the CHUSI units less than once a day (8 AE 12 mg=day). Measurement of serum vitamin levels demonstrated a deficiency in 95% of the subjects, mainly for vitamin C. The mean concentration in serum was 16 AE 8 mmol=l, although 72% of the subjects had levels of 6 mmol=l. In contrast, 50.7, 42.2 and 35.2% of the subjects had high levels of vitamin B 6 , B 12 and B 1 , respectively (100 nmol=l, 420 pmol=l and 40 mmol=l). CONCLUSION: Alcohol takes a high place in the diet of these homeless people. Although the total energy intake was too low, macronutrient intakes seem to be satisfactory in quality (well-balanced). However, calcium and vitamin C intakes were too low, and these deficiencies favour the development of disease (scurvy, asthenia, ecchymosis), in ad...

“…In animal studies, rats maintained on a high-fat diet or exhibiting a preference for fat are found to consume more ethanol (Carrillo et al, 2004;Krahn and Gosnell, 1991;Pekkanen et al, 1978). Also, clinical studies show that fat intake is elevated in ethanol drinkers, with bingeing on fat-rich foods associated with high rates of alcoholism (Herbeth et al, 1988;Swinburn et al, 1998), and drinkers maintained on a fat-rich diet compared with a carbohydrate-rich diet exhibit shorter periods of ethanol abstinence (Forsander, 1998;Yung et al, 1983). A direct and possibly causal relationship between dietary fat and ethanol intake is demonstrated by the finding that a high-fat meal, compared with a low-fat/high-carbohydrate meal, can significantly increase ethanol intake right after the meal (Carrillo et al, 2004).…”

Background: Recent evidence has demonstrated that ethanol intake can stimulate the expression and production of the feeding-stimulatory peptide, galanin (GAL), in the hypothalamic paraventricular nucleus (PVN), and that PVN injection of this peptide, in turn, can increase the consumption of ethanol. To test the hypothesis that other feeding-related systems are involved in ethanol intake, this study examined the effect of ethanol on the hypothalamic opioid peptides, enkephalin (ENK), and dynorphin (DYN).Method: Adult, male Sprague-Dawley rats were trained to voluntarily drink increasing concentrations of ethanol, up to 9% v/v, on a 12-hour access schedule or were given a single injection of ethanol (10% v/v) versus saline vehicle. The effect of ethanol on GAL, ENK, and DYN mRNA was measured using real-time quantitative polymerase chain reaction and radiolabeled in situ hybridization, while radioimmunoassay was used to measure peptide levels. In addition to blood alcohol, circulating levels of triglycerides (TG), leptin, and insulin were also measured.Results: The data demonstrated that: (1) rats voluntarily drinking 9% v/v ethanol (approximately 2.0 g/kg/d) show a significant increase in GAL, ENK, and DYN mRNA in the PVN compared with water-drinking rats; (2) voluntary consumption of ethanol also increases peptide levels of ENK and DYN in the PVN; (3) acute injection of 10% ethanol (1.0 g/kg of 10% v/v) similarly increases the expression of GAL, ENK, and DYN in the PVN; and (4) ethanol consumption and injection, while having little effect on leptin and insulin, consistently increase circulating levels of TG as well as alcohol, both of which are strongly, positively correlated with peptide expression in the PVN.Conclusions: These findings, together with published studies, suggest a possible role for hypothalamic opioid peptides in the drinking of ethanol. Based on evidence that dietary fat and lipid injections stimulate the PVN peptides and injection of the opiates and GAL increase ethanol intake, it is proposed that both TG and alcohol in the circulation, which are elevated by the ingestion or injection of ethanol, are involved in stimulating these peptides in the PVN, which in turn promote further consumption of ethanol.

“…Similarities in the nature of their operation and sites of action within the hypothalamus further indicate that these mechanisms for ethanol and fat intake may functionally overlap and possibly interact in this process. In addition to ethanol consumption stimulating caloric intake [104], there is accumulating evidence suggesting a close, positive relationship between the eating of fat and drinking of ethanol. In animal studies, rats maintained on a high-fat diet or exhibiting a preference for fat are found to consume more ethanol [105][106][107].…”

The studies described in this report provide interesting animal models for exploring some of the metabolic and neural antecedents to the over-consumption of fat and alcohol. The results provide strong support for the existence of positive feedback loops that involve a close relation between circulating lipids and orexigenic peptides in dorsal regions of the hypothalamus. The peptides involved in these circuits include galanin, enkephalin, dynorphin and orexin. These peptides are expressed in the paraventricular nucleus and perifornical lateral hypothalamus, and they have very different functions from peptides expressed in the arcuate nucleus. Through mechanisms involving circulating lipids that rise on energy-dense diets, these peptides in the dorsal hypothalamus are each increased by the consumption of fat and ethanol; these nutrients, in turn, stimulate further production of these same peptides that promote overeating and excess drinking. These mechanisms involving non-homeostatic, positive feedback circuits may be required under conditions when food supplies are scarce and periods of gorging are essential to survival. However, they have pathological and sometimes life-threatening consequences in modern society, where fat-rich foods and alcoholic drinks are abundantly available and are contributing to the marked rise over the past 25 years in obesity and diabetes in both children and adults.
