NCT ID NCT07141979
First seen Apr 02, 2026 · Last updated May 19, 2026 · Updated 8 times
Summary
This study looks at whether a non-invasive brain stimulation technique called tDCS can improve cognitive flexibility in people with orthorexia nervosa—an extreme focus on healthy eating. Researchers will measure brain waves and task performance in 48 adults (24 with high orthorexia scores, 24 healthy) before and after real or fake stimulation. The goal is to understand brain activity patterns in orthorexia and see if tDCS can help shift rigid thinking.
