A Publishers Weekly Best Book of the Year

From an obesity and neuroscience researcher with a knack for engaging, humorous storytelling, The Hungry Brain uses cutting-edge science to answer the questions: why do we overeat, and what can we do about it?

No one wants to overeat. And certainly no one wants to overeat for years, become overweight, and end up with a high risk of diabetes or heart disease--yet two thirds of Americans do precisely that. Even though we know better, we often eat too much. Why does our behavior betray our own intentions to be lean and healthy? The problem, argues obesity and neuroscience researcher Stephan J. Guyenet, is not necessarily a lack of willpower or an incorrect understanding of what to eat. Rather, our appetites and food choices are led astray by ancient, instinctive brain circuits that play by the rules of a survival game that no longer exists. And these circuits don't care about how you look in a bathing suit next summer.

To make the case, The Hungry Brain takes readers on an eye-opening journey through cutting-edge neuroscience that has never before been available to a general audience. The Hungry Brain delivers profound insights into why the brain undermines our weight goals and transforms these insights into practical guidelines for eating well and staying slim. Along the way, it explores how the human brain works, revealing how this mysterious organ makes us who we are.

Nice little jewelry box
Color: Cloud White, Material Type: Paper, PU
Just what I wanted in size and available compartments. The only thing I am hesitant about is the paper outside. Mine is white and may get dirty quickly.

Absolutely the BEST hold for headphones!!
Style: Studio-Grade White – One Pack
Perfect...just needed something easy to use and gentle on my headphones to get them out of the way when not in use. I have purchased several different holders from "TotalMount" and all their stuff is top quality high grade. Nothing flimsy here. I would highly recommend. Holder adheres to any surface and removes without leaving a mark. Sticks using command strips (4 strips for super secure hold) and has a smooth grey silicon liner that looks very mod. I purchased the white hold. I would most definitely purchase again.

This headphone holder is excellent! It’s super easy to install without screws or permanent adhesives, so it won’t damage my walls. The mount feels very sturdy and holds my headphones securely, and the sleek black design looks great in my studio setup. A simple, practical solution for keeping headphones organized and within reac
