Have you ever wished you could just stop eating the cake, even as you put another forkful in your mouth? Have you ever wondered why exactly you are still eating chips when you are definitely full? This book has the answers. The Hungry Brain isn't about denying yourself the food you love, or never eating pudding again, but the bottom line is that we often eat too much and don't really know why; Guyenet will help the reader to understand exactly why - and more importantly, what to do about it.
