INSTRUCTIONS:
Instructions to Learners Now that you have completed the discussion and writing assignment for Module 3, think back to the advertisement you wrote about in your initial discussion post and the neurological functions of eating you learned about in the Module Notes and the assigned readings and viewings. Did the ad you described appeal to your evolutionary desire to consume food purely for fuel or did the ad cause the neurotransmitters in your brain to send a signal that you craved that food purely for pleasure? Next, using the data you have collected in your Food Journal, provide an example of something you ate this week purely for fuel and something you ate purely for pleasure. Your Evolve post should be at least 150 words in length and should substantively integrate the assigned content of the module and draw on what you have learned by going through the course materials .

Weekly Wrap Up In completing Module 3, you learned about the brain’s response to fat and sugar and how we respond to those cravings. You were able to discuss food advertisements and how advertisers target us with ads for unhealthy foods that our brains tell us we need. In the next module, we will focus on childhood obesity and discuss the reasons for the increased rate of obese children in the United STATES References
