This new book delivers the same message, many of the fascinating case studies, and the same advice for breaking bad eating habits in a voice and format that's accessible, positive, and affirming for teenagers.<p/><br></br><p><b> Book Synopsis </b></p></br></br><p>Teen edition of the <i>New York Times</i> bestseller, <i>The End of Overeating</i> <p/>Former commissioner of the US Food and Drug Administration David A. Kessler, M.D., argues forcefully that our brain chemistry is being hijacked by the food we eat: that by consuming stimulating combinations of sugar, fat, and salt, we're conditioning our bodies to crave more sugar, fat, and salt--and consigning ourselves to a vicious cycle of overeating. Adapted from the adult trade bestseller <i>The End of Overeating</i>, <i>Your Food Is Fooling You</i> is concise and direct and delivers the same message, many of the fascinating case studies, and the same advice for breaking bad eating habits in a voice and format that's accessible, positive, and affirming for teenagers. Young people are at most risk of forming bad eating habits--but they're also highly aware of body image and highly responsive to positive messages about health and diet. <i>Your Food Is Fooling You</i> is a readable, authoritative, and entertaining call to action by one of our nation's leading public health figures.</p><p/><br></br><p><b> Review Quotes </b></p></br></br><br>"Kessler reponds with a method that doesn't promise a quick fix but instead offers some consoling advice on how to kick an overeating habit." --<i>Booklist</i><br><p/><br></br><p><b> About the Author </b></p></br></br><b>David A.
