Are you addicted to carbs? Do you find they make you hungrier and crave more carbs?

In this video I'm covering a Harvard Medical School brand-new study published in the Journal of Nutrition on this very topic!

They examined 72 overweight adults over 20 weeks, comparing a low carb/high fat, moderate carb/fat, and a high carb/low fat diet along with MRI scans of their brains in a fasted state before eating each day and four hours after their first meal each day.

This study literally looked at the effects of different levels of carbohydrates and fats on the reward center of the brain!
