What is Brain Responses to Gut Nutrients about?
1) The document discusses recent advances in using functional MRI (fMRI) to map human brain responses to nutrients and gut hormones. Physiological MRI (physMRI) allows researchers to directly infuse nutrients into the gut and compare brain responses over time to a saline control. 2) Studies using physMRI have found that glucose infusion decreases activity in brain regions involved in appetite regulation like the hypothalamus. Other nutrients like fructose have been found to activate different brain region
