Adolescents are the highest consumers of sugar sweetened beverages (SSB) potentially because their developing brains are most susceptible to the rewarding neural effects of sugar consumption. Thus, we specifically target this population (adolescents) to understand neural mechanisms involved in excess sugar consumption which predisposes to the development of obesity, prediabetes, and type 2 diabetes.
