'Newsweek' reports that neuroscientists have discovered a link between an individual's dietary choices and specific brain activity patterns. According to scientists at Queen's University at Kingston, connections exist between body mass index (BMI) and certain brain states necessary to achieve goals. . The team looked at data from three MRI studies involving 123 participants making food choices under a number of different conditions. The team looked at data from three MRI studies involving 123 participants making food choices under a number of different conditions. Scientists compared the brain activity patterns from when participants chose food they normally eat, versus when they were instructed to focus on healthy foods.

Scientists compared the brain activity patterns from when participants chose food they normally eat, versus when they were instructed to focus on healthy foods. 'Newsweek' reports that the results offer insight into how variables are integrated by the brain and how that impacts dietary control. The findings suggest that the number of large-scale brain pattern reconfigurations necessary to influence behavior may determine if people struggle to maintain dietary control. .
