Abstract:
Whole-body magnetic stimulation (WB-MS) was used in a binge-like feeding model involving intermittent access to a palatable diet. WB-MS transiently reduced intake during simulation without altering chow intake. Still, effects were not sustained, as binge-like behavior reemerged after treatment, with no changes in weight, adiposity, or accumbens c-Fos expression.
