The Serotonin Power Diet: Eat Carbs--Nature's Own Appetite Suppressant--to Stop Emotional Overeating and Halt Antidepressant-Associated Weight Gain


"Serotonin is the switch that turns off your appetite. It is the "I have had enough to eat" switch. Serotonin is also the control that restores your good mood after minor and major stresses erode it. When produced consistently and regularly, serotonin prevents the tendency to eat impulsively when stresses occur.

Nature seems to have tagged serotonin as the only food-dependent brain chemical. At the same time, nature did you an enormous favor. By being able to manufacture serotonin by eating sweet or starchy carbohydrates, you can tap into a built-in appetite suppressant and mood regulator." - excerpt
