Obesity is a disease of increasing prevalence due in part to the greater availability of fatty, sugary and/or salty foods which, when consumed chronically and in excess, can lead to food addiction.~According to the neurocognitive model of addiction, the development and maintenance of addiction is associated with deficits in cognitive control, as well as a decrease prefrontal cortex (dlPFC). Self-control in food choice situations also depends on prefrontal network with the dlPFC as a hub, strongly connected with striatal and cingulate structures.~Neurofeedback (NF) is a technique that relies on the patient's positive or negative self-regulation of brain activity. It has been shown to be effective in several pathologies, in particular attention deficit/hyperactivity disorder in young people and more recently in depression and emotion regulation.~In this study, NF will be based on near-infrared spectroscopy (fNIRS), because its use is easy mobile and inexpensive. The hypothesis is that the increase in dlPFC brain activity via fNIR-based NF training based on fNIRS would allow an improvement of the eating behavior, thus promoting a long-term weight loss in obese subjects.
