Brain may sabotage efforts to lose weight.

Reference- http://www.sciencenews.org/view/generic/id/334505/title/Brain_may_sabotage_efforts_to_lose_weight




Summary - In obese people even when the brains knows it isn’t hungry. It responds to food as if it was new brain data scanned. This means if obese people try to lose weight they may find themselves not doing as well cause of neutral centers that unconsciously encourages them to eat. For an example usually normal weight people they give themselves a positive feedback on how good you are eating. Your brain for obese people is thinking that you aren’t getting enough food even though you are probably getting more than enough food for you, makes it harder effort to lose weight.



Critique – It may be all of the bad food that is out there. Which when people eats it you put on some more weight, and from that. Your mind starts to get a little messed up thinking you need more food for yourself even though you don’t need more food. Which makes it hard for obese people to try to lose weight.



Impact – I think this will get a message out saying that you shouldn’t be eating bad food. Even though it is talking about just food, but junk food is worse for you and it makes you gain more weight rather than vegetables and fruit.
