Mmm, the food looks good, so I eat it: Some people may simply be hard-wired to overeat, brain scans show

You have to be a friggin' idiot to believe this s**t.

"Weight gain is not always just a matter of lacking willpower, but has more to do with how your brain reacts to what it sees, according to a new study by neuroscientists."

The new study was performed by hacks.

Here is what they did:

"In the small study, just published in the January Journal of Neuroscience, brain scans showed how 21 participants reacted to three sets of images: appetizing food, bland food, and unrelated images of other subjects. The volunteers were of normal weight because obese people have already undergone 'neurohormonal changes' that affect how their brains function, according to researcher Andrew Calder."

End of story.

The supposedly hardwired to overeat people "were of normal weight."

So much for hardwiring.

It is a matter of willpower.

Shut up. Stop whining. Eat fewer Calories than you burn.

BTW, hardwiring has also been blamed for pedophilia, cocaine abuse, fat women and snake fear.

Think about that the next time one of you fatsos has a child raped and the defense is hardwiring.
