Editorial Review: Product Description: Cure Your Food Cravings Once and For All If sweets and high-fat foods are sabotaging your efforts to lose weight and get healthy, Dr. Neal Barnard has the solution to conquering your food addictions. Backed up by scientific research, Breaking the Food Seduction explains that your biochemistry, not your lack of willpower, is the problem. Dr. Barnard reveals the simple dietary and lifestyle changes that can break the stubborn cycle of cravings and make you free to choose healthy and tasty foods that can help to you lose weight, lower cholesterol, and improve your overall health. Featuring a 3-week kickstart plan and 100 delicious, satisfying recipes Amazon.com Review: Why is it so hard to resist the temptation of chocolate? Because chocolate triggers the release of natural opiates in the brain. It's a drug "strong enough to keep us coming back for more," according to nutritional researcher Neal Barnard, M.D., president and founder of the Physician's Committee for Responsible Medicine. Cheese also releases mild opiates during digestion--no wonder we crave it. In Breaking the Food Seduction, Barnard helps you understand and overcome your food cravings. He explains which foods "hook" us the most and why, and what to do to break free when you want to decrease the calories and fat that accompany these seductive foods. Cheese, for example, is about 70 percent saturated fat and has more cholesterol, ounce for ounce, than a steak. Barnard offers seven steps to breaking your food cravings, devoting a chapter to each one, with anecdotes and plenty of clear, sound, practical tips. Then he presents guidelines for healthy eating using "the New Four Food Groups"--vegetables, fruits, legumes, and whole grains--with a three-week menu plan and 113 healthful, vegan recipes. Highly recommended for people who want to understand their food cravings and finally get rid of them. --Joan Price Average Rating:

Read More Rating:  - Breaking the Food SeductionAnother excellent Dr. Neal Barnard book. A good book regarding food cravings and how to have a 'craving-free' body. Lots of good menus and recipes. I would recommend any of Dr. Neal Barnard's books. Rating:  - same information as so many other booksThis book was a fast read, and mainly talked about a low GI diet. Somehow I was hoping to hear something new and different from other books I have read. It was worth the read. Rating: - WONDERFUL BOOKA plant based diet is advocated. The best part is that the doctor explains WHY this is the best diet. He gives tips that are doable. The book is easy to read and the examples he gives are relateable. Highly recommend this book. Rating: - A fascinating look at food's effect on the human body!For me, it all comes down to oatmeal. But first you have the name of the book: Breaking the Food Seduction. It sounds a little goofy at first, like a cover blurb on a checkout stand magazine. But Dr. Barnard has a real point: the reason it's so hard to resist, say, chocolate, or cheese, or (for me) that doughnut, has nothing to do with willpower. It's chemistry. We literally become "addicted" to the physical effects of components of these foods, and that leads us to crave them. It's nothing ... Read More Browse for similar items by category:
