===========================
Immediate release of dopamine after eating sugar
A study conducted at the Max Planck Institute for Metabolism Research has shown that dopamine is released immediately after eating sugary foods, even before the food reaches the stomach. Depending on individual cravings, different amounts of dopamine are released at different times. The brains of people with a stronger craving for the high-sugar food released more dopamine immediately after eating, but less once the food had reached the stomach [Thanarajah et al., 2019].
