Real-time fMRI neurofeedback training to improve eating behavior by self-regulation of the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex: a randomized controlled trial in overweight and obese subjects

In this work, Szypula (2021) investigated the meal-recall effect, which states that recalling a recent meal lowers later snack consumption. According to a literature review, the meal-recall effect may be caused by a brief improvement in interoceptive capacity.
