About book The Amen Solution: The Brain Healthy Way To Lose Weight And Keep It Off (2011)
I saw Dr. Amen on PBS one day and was immediately sucked in to his seminar on the brain and losing weight. This book fascinated me because it it correlated bad habits (mainly due to eating/diet) with problems in certain parts of the brain and it just made total sense to me. The book has you figure out your "brain type" and the type of eater you are, and then he suggests exercises, supplements, and other ways to improve that part of your brain. I like that as a doctor he admits that you should always try supplements first and then go to your doctor for medicines if those don't work. I think all doctors should do this. My biggest "a-ha!" moment in this book was figuring out that I'm an impulse eater and it's made me more conscience of what and when I'm eating now. There's tons of great things about this book that I'm not going to type right now....go and read it yourself! This book contains a questionnaire to help readers learn which brain dysfunctions they have, and Amen provides specific weight management guidelines for each brain type. Other useful things in this book include a template for day-to-day weight-loss record keeping, a list of foods that are healthy for both body and brain, and a bunch of little tips titled "Two Hundred Ways To Leave Your Blubber Behind."Everything here seems medically sound and simple enough.
