DOI: 10.1016/j.appet.2021.105718
Abstract: Multi-component food-items are single food products that comprise more than one food class, brought together usually via some form of processing. Importantly, individual components of the food-item remain discernible and sensorially distinguishable from each other… read more here.

DOI: 10.1016/j.neuropsychologia.2018.08.023
Abstract: ABSTRACT The mere perception of high‐calorie food items can trigger strong action tendencies towards these foods. Go/no‐go training has successfully been applied to reduce such action tendencies. This study investigated the electrophysiological mechanisms that may… read more here.
