Product Description

Ever increasing numbers of adults are overweight, and they know it. On any given day, millions of people use one of the hundred or so popular weight loss programs, all of which promise miraculous results with little effort. So, why do we need another diet book? The answer is cortisol control, a new discovery that is the missing link to effective weight loss. Breakthrough research has shown that the stress hormone cortisol is a key factor in obesity. Higher cortisol levels increase appetite, enhance fat storage and disrupt blood sugar control. Shawn Talbott explained the science behind this in his best-selling book The Cortisol Connection. Now, in THE CORTISOL CONNECTION DIET, he shows how to apply it. Accessible and easy to follow, this pocket-sized guide: shows you how to eat for quality and quantity at every meal so you can achieve permanent, healthy weight loss explains how to use food, dietary supplements and exercise to control cortisol and blood sugar levels shows you how to change your metabolic response to food, essential for losing those last 10 pounds Included are a three-week log to chart diet, exercise and supplements and sample plans for breakfast, lunch, dinner, snacks and supplements.

At last - the truth about dieting
Why do so many diets fail in the long term? Why do people lose weight and then become even heavier than before? Why is it hardest to lose the last few pounds. These questions are all answered in this book, which provides a simple and painless system for losing weight sustainably. It contains good advice about stress too. As a former health and wellness coach, specialising in stress management and weight loss, I cannot recommend it too strongly.
