NEW YORK, Nov. 1 (TNSres) -- Rockefeller University issued the following news:
As you're deciding whether to eat one more potato chip, a pitched battle takes place in your brain. One group of neurons promotes hunger while another induces satiety. How quickly one group gains the upper hand determines how likely you are to put down the bag of chips.
