Sustained inhibition of self-stimulation by intragastric food but not water load in rats as demonstrated by Hoebel and Teitelbaum [7] in 1962. The authors concluded that: “Self-stimulation rate was slowed to about half the normal rate by a stomach load of 18 ml of liquid milk diet. The same amount of water had only a transient effect, suggesting that some consequence of food intake other than taste or stomach distension was responsible for prolonged inhibition [7].
