| Do you know how food affects your brain?
This revolutionary book is a must-have reference on this important but often neglected topic.
New research in nutrition and weight loss has revealed an amazing discovery: the brain—virtually neglected in all other diet plans—is the most important organ in dieting. Dieters can actually lose weight by eating foods, nutrients, teas, and spices that change the chemical balance of the brain for permanent weight loss—a major factor contributing to how quickly the body ages. In fact, everyone can take years off their age by changing their brain chemistry.
 In Younger (Thinner) You Diet, Dr. Eric Braverman presents a totally new approach to lifelong weight management, where the key is not found in counting carbs, fat grams, or calories. Obesity is a brain chemical imbalance, an addictive disorder, treated successfully only through the combined approach of diet, nutrients, and hormones.
One of the foremost experts in integrative medicine, known for his work on the brain-body connection, Dr. Braverman teaches readers:
-which foods naturally boost the body’s production of dopamine, the chemical in the brain that tells the body to start its fat-burning engine
-how to choose foods, supplements, teas, and spices—even hormones and medicine—to avoid the effects of other aging organs that can destroy one’s metabolism
-how to personalize the diet for specific health concerns, such as heart problems, aging skin, weak muscles, and achy joints
Eliminating the frustration and deprivation of conventional dieting, Younger (Thinner) You Diet will help anyone turn back the clock to a slimmer, healthier, younger you.
Dr. Braverman discusses at length in understandable language the following brain chemicals: dopamine, acetylcholine, gamma-aminobutyric acid (GABA), and serotonin. He shows how a lack of them can affect your personality, aging, and weight gain. Just looking at the various personality profiles Dr. Braverman provides, you can easily recognize which neurotransmitters you and your loved ones lack.
There are also tips for combating specific health issues like osteoporosis, collagen loss, etc, and sections that details the powers of various teas and spices on the brain and body.

"I saw this book promoted on TV and ordered. This is a new take on dieting and the part mental nutrition plays in it. I have been on this nutrition plan for three weeks and like the results. I am now controlling most of my cravings and eating healthier." -Houston, TX
"This book is amazing and shows how to eat for LIFE. I appreciate the presentation and the useful way the book is written, it shows who, where, what, why, and when of each aspect of dieting. Even proves that diets start in my brain. The brain is discussed at length and I know following these suggestions will elevate my mood, my brain health, and the resulting weight loss will follow. Thank you Dr. Braverman for a great book. My personal "best" so far has been switching from diet cola to beneficial green tea. I recommend this book to all as a guide to eating healthy and staying well." -Donna R. |
