      abstract     = {The estimates we do of the energy content of different
                      foods tend to be inaccurate, depending on several factors.
                      The elements influencing such evaluation are related to the
                      differences in the portion size of the foods shown, their
                      energy density (kcal/g), but also to individual differences
                      of the estimators, such as their body-mass index (BMI) or
                      eating habits. Within this context the contribution of brain
                      regions involved in food-related decisions to the energy
                      estimation process is still poorly understood. Here,
                      normal-weight and overweight/obese women with restrained or
                      non-restrained eating habits, received anodal transcranial
                      direct current stimulation (AtDCS) to modulate the activity
                      of the left dorsolateral prefrontal cortex (dlPFC) while
                      they performed a food energy estimation task. Participants
                      were asked to judge the energy content of food images,
                      unaware that all foods, for the quantity presented, shared
                      the same energy content. Results showed that food energy
                      density was a reliable predictor of their energy content
                      estimates, suggesting that participants relied on their
                      knowledge about the food energy density as a proxy for
                      estimating food energy content. The neuromodulation of the
                      dlPFC interacted with individual differences in restrained
                      eating, increasing the precision of the energy content
                      estimates in participants with higher scores in the
                      restrained eating scale. Our study highlights the importance
                      of eating habits, such as restrained eating, in modulating
                      the activity of the left dlPFC during food appraisal.},
