Publication alert🚨 We created #FinnFoodPics — a modern, validated food image set tailored to Finnish diets. 🎯 We invite researchers in Finland and beyond to use it to study eating behavior and its role in diet-related diseases. 🌍🧠 sciencedirect.com/science/articl…

Diets high in ultra-processed foods (UPFs) may lead to brain changes, creating a cycle of consuming more UPFs. 🧠 Some changes are influenced by obesity, others aren't—hinting at varied pathways UPFs affect the brain. nature.com/articles/s4432…
