Drexel University researchers may have found a way to get people to eat healthier and have fun at the same time. 

Researchers developed a computer game that trained participants’ brains to eat less sugar. Researchers then studied the effects of the game on participants’ weight-loss goals. The study appeared in the March edition of the Journal of Behavioral Medicine.
