A Pound of Cure was written by Dr. Matthew Weiner, a bariatric surgeon, who has identified a style of eating that can bring about the same metabolic changes seen after gastric bypass surgery. The shifts in your metabolism that block hunger and prevent weight-loss plateaus after surgery can be obtained by focusing your diet on nutrient-rich foods like fruits and vegetables. The style of eating outlined shows you how to use food to control hunger, eliminate cravings, and prevent the slowdown in your metabolism that plagues typical starvation diets.

Her vantage as an outsider entrenched in Finnish culture uniquely positions her to identify the keys to Finnish happiness that elude the rest of the world and that Finns take for granted. From sauna to strong social safety nets, Finnish life is made up of a constellation of habits and structures that leave its residents relaxed, healthy, and fulfilled.

Not engaging and puts me to sleep
Book has some good information but the format is just not right. It’s a little to dry, and sounds as scientific research which is just very difficult to follow. Very long Overview of each section, and a lot of information in the beginning which has nothing to do with the topic ( like other ways to loose weight). May be it’s better in book format where u can skip chapters, but in audio it’s very disappointing.
