The Cortisol Connection Diet: The Breakthrough Program to Control Stress and Lose Weight

Loved it! Very very educating. I used it while on prep for a bodybuilding competition and it taught me a lot!

The missing link in your weight loss goalsStress, cortisol, blood sugar issues, insulin, binge eating know I know whyBrilliant book from Dr Shawn Talbot one of my bibles

Good starting point if you can't lose weight no matter what diet or exercise regime you use. Need to check out your thyroid via blood tests and see your doctor - if you are making too much Cortisol then try this. That is what I am doing!

very helpful book, explained a lot about diet and effects of cortisol how to help the symptoms and what causes it

Another excellent book, helps you to understand why you have become the way you are and how to get better!

I want to lose some weight. Simple as that. I cycle to work everyday, eat reasonably healthily but fairly stressed. That's why I wanted to try and see what this book had to say.Traditionally, whatever "diet" book you read will say "eat more fruit and veg", "exercise more" and "eat less pizza and eat all you can curries". This book basically says "pop pills X, Y and Z" then "pop some more pills". I mean, I love going in Holland and Barratt stores, but some of these things I've never heard of. I'm sure generations past (cavemen/barbarians/Victorians/war generation) never popped pills this much. Maybe the book is aimed at Americans where these things have different names? Who knows. All I know if the book went straight to the charity shop and I went to Pizza Hut.

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.
