Adding emotion-regulation skills to family-based teen weight treatment gave no extra loss during treatment but less regain a year later, a small effect.

In 46 children of healthy weight, more ultra-processed calories tracked a stronger dorsal striatal food-cue response, but the one-year fat link was borderline.

EFSA judged inulin-propionate ester safe to add to food — a safety ruling, not a weight-loss result. The longest 12-month trial found no weight-gain difference.

Preliminary: in an uncontrolled study of 25 adults who lost weight, gut-bacteria and brain-activity shifts tracked together — an association, not proof that weight loss rewires the brain.

A preliminary 14-day controlled feeding trial found that a ~95% ultra-processed diet left GLP-1, PYY, ghrelin and PP responses unchanged in lean young adults — an exploratory, industry-partnership-funded null.
