Study Summary

This study will determine whether changes in energy balance alter regional neuronal activation of brain regions associated with food intake in individuals screened to be either resistant or prone to obesity. Specifically, it will determine whether foods of "hedonic" value elicit changes in regional neuronal activity in the fasted and fed state in "obese-resistant" and "obese-prone" men and women in varying states of energy balance.

Primary Outcome

Change in neuronal response to food vs. nonfood objects in the overfed and underfed feeding periods as compared to the eucaloric period between fasted and fed states in obese-prone as compared to obese-resistant individuals.

Interventions

  • OTHER Eucaloric Feeding Period
  • OTHER Overfeeding Feeding Period
  • OTHER Underfeeding Feeding Period
