Gourmand Syndrome

Gourmand Syndrome is a rare, benign condition that sometimes occurs in people who sustain injuries to the right, frontal lobe. These people develop a new, post-injury passion for gourmet food. It was first described by Regard and Landis in the journal Neurology. This often causes great financial distress, thus leading to other psychological problems. (NEUROLOGY 48 (5): 1185-1190 MAY 1997)
