"Who could be better suited and more trustworthy than former FDA commissioner Dr. David A. Kessler to doggedly sort through the scientific evidence, cut through the hype, and bring us to a better understanding of our own body weight? Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine is eye-opening, beautifully crafted, full of practical insights, and a great read." --Abraham Verghese, New York Times bestselling author of The Covenant of Water "A brilliant and incisive examination of one of our country's most vexing health challenges. Dr. Kessler's sharp scientific analysis cuts through the fog of confusion surrounding weight loss and offers a practical, sustainable pathway to better health. It is no surprise he is one of the great medical and public health leaders of our time." --Vivek H. Murthy, MD, 19th and 21st Surgeon General of the United States and New York Times bestselling author of Together " Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine is a tour de force and reflects a clarity of thinking on many controversial issues from food restricting to intuitive eating, body positivity to toxic fat, and GLP-1 agonists as a possible revolutionary tool to combat obesity. There's even a section on menopause! This book is the definitive scientific source on food addiction." --Anna Lembke, MD, New York Times bestselling author of Dopamine Nation "Dr. Kessler forensically dissects the weighty topic of obesity for all to understand.

[and] urges us to recognize that obesity is a chronic condition that needs to be treated as such." -- Los Angeles Times "Highly readable and persuasive . . . A deep scientific understanding of the biological mechanisms involved, a former regulator's pragmatism and a compassion born of personal experience make this an important contribution to the literature." -- Financial Times "A timely and ambitious book that tackles the obesity epidemic with a rare blend of scientific rigor, policy insight, and personal candor . . . Kessler brings decades of experience to bear on one of the most pressing public health crises of our time." --Medium.com "Who could be better suited and more trustworthy than former FDA commissioner Dr. David A.

Synopsis
INSTANT NEW YORK TIMES BESTSELLER From the New York Times bestselling author of The End of Overeating comes an illuminating understanding of body weight, including the promise--and peril --of the latest weight loss drugs. The struggle is universal: we work hard to lose weight, only to find that it slowly creeps back. In America, body weight has become a pain point shrouded in self-recrimination and shame, not to mention bias from the medical community. For many, this battle not only takes a mental toll but also becomes a physical threat: three-quarters of American adults struggle with weight-related health conditions, including high blood pressure, heart disease, and diabetes. We know that diets don't work, and yet we also know that excess weight starves us of years and quality of life. Where do we go from here? In Diet, Drugs, and Dopamine , former FDA Commissioner Dr. David A. Kessler unpacks the mystery of weight in the most comprehensive work to date on this topic, giving readers the power to dramatically improve their health. Kessler, who has himself struggled with weight, suggests the new class of GLP-1 weight loss drugs have provided a breakthrough: they have radically altered our understanding of weight loss. They make lasting change possible, but they also have real disadvantages and must be considered as part of a comprehensive approach together with nutrition, behavior, and physical activity. Critical to this new perspective is the insight that weight-loss drugs act on the part of the brain that is responsible for cravings. In essence, the drugs tamp down the addictive circuits that overwhelm rational decision-making and quiet the "food noise" that distracts us. Identifying these mechanisms allows us to develop a strategy for effective long-term weight loss, and that begins with naming the elephant in the room: ultraformulated foods are addictive. Losing weight is a process of treating addiction. In this landmark book, one of the nation's leading public health officials breaks taboos around this fraught conversation, giving readers the tools to unplug the brain's addictive wiring and change their relationship with food. Dr. Kessler cautions that drugs, on their own, pose serious risks and are not a universal solution. But with this new understanding of the brain-body feedback loop comes new possibilities for our health and freedom from a lifelong struggle. Eye-opening, provocative, and rigorous, this book is a must-read for anyone who has ever struggled to maintain their weight--which is to say, everyone.
