All women know that we do not resist temptations. However, there is a scientific proof that indeed it is. A study conducted by the Department of Energy of the United States showed that, when is a matter of controlling hunger, the brain of the man has more capacity to do it than the woman. That would explain perhaps the differences in gluttony and obesity, and the difficulty that women have to lose weight.

The study team observed by imaging the brains of 13 women and 10 men who showed them their favorite foods after 20 hours of fasting. The brains of men definitely responded better to control when they were asked to inhibit their desire to eat.
