Summary

This study looks at how your stomach and brain work together to control hunger and fullness. Researchers will use MRI scans to see which brain areas light up when the stomach is stretched, when you taste something with no calories, or when you eat tasty food. The goal is to better understand appetite regulation in 15 healthy adults.
