    Do you like eating hamburgers and French fries? However, eating too much junk food is bad for you, particularly(尤其是) if you're between the ages of 13 and 19.

    It seems that teenagers usually like junk food more than grown-ups. Amy Reichelt, a Canadian brain (大脑) scientist, studied the science behind this. She found that teenagers are more sensitive (敏感的) than any other age group to foods that have a lot of fat and sugar. Teenagers' brains are still developing and learning how to control (控制) themselves. The prefrontal cortex (前额皮质) is one part of the brain. It tells us we shouldn't eat junk food frequently. But this part is the last to mature (发育成熟) —it doesn't fully develop until we are in our early 20s.

    So, what's the best way to say no to junk food? Exercise! When we exercise, the brain becomes less sensitive to food. And the prefrontal cortex can work better to help us control ourselves.
