Summary

This study looks at whether people with obesity who also have binge eating or food addiction experience taste differently than those without these behaviors. Researchers will measure sweet and salty taste thresholds in 300 participants. The goal is to understand why some people overeat calorie-dense foods and to develop personalized diet plans for long-term weight management.
