New research shows how your brain responds to food may make a big difference in sustaining weight loss.
Conversely, these same areas of the brain were not activated on the scan for participants with obesity.
Experts say this lack of reward response could lead to overeating and make it difficult to change eating habits that can contribute to weight gain."This study really, really proves the biological and brain causes are contributions for overweight and obesity are really a real thing," said Dr. Jennifer Ashton, ABC News chief medical correspondent and board-certified obesity medicine specialist.
It was only done in a relatively few number of adults over 40 years old, so it may not be generalizable to younger populations. And the study used a feeding tube to give the nutrients that doesn't mimic how most people really eat or account for food choices, so these differences in the brain may not hold true in all circumstances.
