***Since writing this book I've tried to investigate the science behind it. I've learned that the R-Complex in our brain is responsible for survival and is the part of our brain that is controlling our stress modes.

I've learned that when we eat the carbs that are most easily turned into fat, our brains give us a dose of serotonin - it's 'feel good' stuff.

I've also learned that caffeine in excess creates excess cortisol, which 'keeps the fat on' especially around the belly. Both caffeine and stress create cortisol.
