ABOUT THE EVENT
Presented by
Casey Thaler
Certified Personal Trainer and Fitness Nutrition Specialist
Are you overweight? Or maybe TOFI – thin on the outside, fat on the inside? Can you not stop eating, no matter what diet you try? Is food addictive? Casey will lecture on the hedonic and dopaminergic properties of food. Overlaps in neuronal brain circuity, specifically the nucleus accumbens, will also be discussed.
