Risk-Taking Behavior Increases in Weight-Loss Patients with Obesity
Received Date: Jun 01, 2024 / Published Date: Jun 29, 2024
Abstract
This study examines changes in risk-taking behavior among patients with obesity following weight loss. Previous research suggests that weight loss can influence cognitive functions and decision-making processes. Using a validated decision-making task, we assessed risk propensity in a cohort of obesity patients before and after a structured weight loss program. Our findings indicate a significant increase in risk-taking behavior post-intervention, highlighting potential cognitive shifts associated with metabolic changes. These results underscore the importance of monitoring cognitive aspects alongside physiological outcomes in obesity management strategies.
