Abstract
Previous studies have demonstrated that the application of repetitive transcranial magnetic stimulation (rTMS) to the dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (DLPFC) can reduce cravings for appetitive foods among those who report frequent experiences of craving for food. However, whether actual consumption of appetitive foods are reduced by rTMS treatment is less clear. In this study, we investigated whether a single session of high-frequency rTMS stimulation to the left DLPFC before training to inhibit responses to chocolate stimuli would reduce subjective craving for chocolate food and also decrease the amount of chocolate snack consumption during a bogus taste test.
