Study Summary
Scientists have studied how fasting and nutrients affect brain function in animals. The purpose of this study is to look at the effects of both fasting and food intake on brain function and memory in humans. To do this the investigators will use functional MRI to observe the brain and its function while fasting and after a meal. Understanding the action of these hormones in the brain may eventually lead to new ways to help people avoid obesity or lose weight.
Primary Outcome
To determine whether the change in brain response (as captured by MRI) to visual food cues with food intake is a marker of satiety. We hypothesize that consumption of a meal will reduce brain activation by food cues and that these reductions will be temporally associated with both subjective and objective measures of satiety.
