I'm looking forward to your ideas getting more airtime in national discussions on nutrition.<br /><br />I first heard about your blog, and through it, the nuances and history of aspects of nutrition and cuisine research, from a flippant commenter on a NYT article. I'm very glad I checked it out! You introduced me to Weston Price, Gary Taubes, and your thoughtful, well-researched articles have given me much food for thought over the years. Not only that, but your lay-person-friendly discussions of study design and critical evaluation of scientific lit (along with that of others in your field) has done more for my education in the sciences than ... my formal education in the sciences. Hopefully soon we'll be reading articles about your ideas in NYT.<br /><br />Happy holidays! microkathttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02467908921801467088noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-33088516564490483802016-11-08T04:47:34.326-08:002016-11-08T04:47:34.326-08:00Unfortunately we need to wait until February next ...Unfortunately we need to wait until February next year for the book to hit the shelves. :-(Zolihttps://www.blogger.com/profile/08803616472260936792noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-63097467983166325612016-10-25T09:52:37.875-07:002016-10-25T09:52:37.875-07:00It sounds great!

Fasting is the solution to fat loss. I was HFLC for best part of a decade maintaining my obesity by eating once a day. Now I leave it 48hrs between meals I have lost 70lbs since Feb. Fasting works for everyone, it is just how long it takes you to reach the fasted state. For normals over night is long enough, for obese it takes longer. Start with 20:4. Don't count calories. If it doesn't work throw in a 42hr fast once a week. If you don't see results in a few weeks consult dr Jason Fung's website.Daniellehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04594535259607379856noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-16153769474082256692016-09-29T17:32:53.678-07:002016-09-29T17:32:53.678-07:00I just pre-ordered this on Amazon.

As far as its practical value, I do offer some thoughts on weight control but I don't want to give you false hope. Your situation is challenging and I can't promise you a cure. I'll leave that to the snake oil salesmen. But the book might offer you a few new ideas to try.Stephan Guyenethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218114625524777250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-22453009328776180512016-08-28T14:59:32.981-07:002016-08-28T14:59:32.981-07:00I'm looking forward to your book.

I'm now 48. Everyone I know on LCHF do well, feel full, i log everything i eat, and i feel like i'm starving most of the time, yet i'm clearly eating enough. It doesn't matter what my diet is or how much i exercise. Life is torture being hungry even after you have had a nice meal. Doctors label you as lazy. There has got to be a fix. I'm so tired of the medical community preaching low calorie diet. I have to live on less than 1000 to lose weight. You'd be miserable too if your brain kept saying I'm Starving! I hope your book has some REAL suggestions because I've tried everything and life is NO FUN. Every year is a little harder. I'm happy I found your blog.

It will be available for pre-order at some point. I'll announce it.<br /><br />Hi Olinda,<br /><br />Thanks! I haven't read that book so I can't comment on its similarity to mine. But to give you an idea, only two chapters out of 11 are about food reward. Food reward plays an important role in the book, but there are also chapters on sleep/circadian rhythm, stress, body fat and appetite regulation, genetics, and more, all from the perspective of neuroscience. No book can cover every reason why we overeat, but I've attempted to hit the big themes and tie them together in a cohesive narrative.Stephan Guyenethttps://www.blogger.com/profile/09218114625524777250noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1629175743855013102.post-14987773247954444682016-07-22T18:36:54.800-07:002016-07-22T18:36:54.800-07:00I am really looking forward to reading it.
