Correct.

Scott, it's our brains. So one of the ways our body signals that we're full involves these satiety neurons, and they're located in this part of our brain called the hypothalamus. But sugar seems to hijack that system in an interesting way.

Yes. So when the researchers blocked this pathway, the mice seemed less interested in sugar.

Yeah. And then Henning and his colleagues found the same pathways in humans by looking at donated brain tissue and scanning brains of volunteers who sat in an fMRI machine and were fed a sugar solution through a tube.

Yeah, they're trying to take my job.

Yeah. Researchers figured out a way to measure the health of parts of the ocean by tracking and weighing elephant seals.

According to lead researcher Roxanne Beltran, a huge pulley system, basically. They wait for pregnant females to return from their months long foraging trip to beaches on the California coast where they give birth and bond with their pups. Then using binoculars and cameras, the scientists identify previously tagged seals they want to weigh and then they weigh them.
