Summary

This study looks at how the gut and brain work together to control appetite. Researchers will give healthy adults different food-related sensations (like stomach stretching or tasting calories) and use brain scans to see which areas light up. The goal is to understand why we feel full or hungry, which could help develop better treatments for obesity.
