520    "The author of New York Times bestseller Body-for-Life for
       Women presents a groundbreaking, neuroscience-based 
       program to rewire your food-addicted brain and get the 
       body you deserve. The bodys' built-in reward system, 
       driven by the chemical dopamine, is a fascinating 
       adaptation: It tells us to do more of the things that give
       us pleasure. Creative energy, falling in love, 
       entrepreneurship, and even the continued propagation of 
       the human race are driven by this system . . . just as is,
       unfortunately, the urge to overeat. In The Hunger Fix, Dr.
       Pamela Peeke uses the latest neuroscience to explain how 
       unhealthy food and behavioral "hooks" have gotten us 
       ensnared; indeed, she shows that dopamine rushes in the 
       body work exactly the same way with food as with cocaine. 
       Luckily, we are all capable of rewiring, and the very same
       dopamine-driven system can be used to reward us for 
       healthful, exciting, and fulfilling activities. The Hunger
       Fix makes this possible by laying out a lifelong, 3-stage 
       plan that starts with a 3- to 4-week jump start to break 
       so-called destructive fixes and replace them with 
       healthier actions. Fitness guides, meal plans, and recipes
       are constructed to bolster the growth of new neurons and 
       stimulate the bodys' reward system. Gradually, healthy 
       fixes like playing games, meditating, having sex, going 
       for a run, laughing, and learning a new language will 
       replace the junk food, couch time, and other bad habits 
       that leave us unhappy and overweight"--|cProvided by
