Introduction The global prevalence of obesity is rising ( Yach et al . 2006 ), emphasizing the need to decipher the complex regulatory mechanisms underlying energy balance. Evidence indicates that chronic stress is a risk factor for obesity

Introduction The effects of early-life stress (ELS) are profound, long lasting, and diverse. ELS impacts growth, metabolism, immunity, brain physiology, and behavior ( Meaney & Plotsky 2000 , Lehmann et al. 2002 , Levine 2002 , Bilbo et
