Brief Summary: This study will determine how noninvasive nerve stimulation affects human brain stomach and autonomic activity
Detailed Description: Scientific research into the basic mechanisms underlying neuromodulation is relatively recent and incomplete The purpose of the proposed study is to determine how a form of neuromodulation transcutaneous electro-accupoint stimulation which is non-invasive and non-painful affects human brain stomach and autonomic activity We will accomplish this by integrating whole brain functional MRI fMRI methodologies with gastric MRI and physiological monitoring

This study will comprise 3 functional magnetic resonance imaging fMRI brain-gut scans all while receiving the neuromodulation with varying parameters Participants will also have their heart rate breathing and gastric activity monitored during all visits
