Interview with Jimmy Moore:

I just had an interview with the ever so famous Jimmy Moore. One of my specialties is balancing my clients' brain chemistry through food. Have you ever gone on a diet and no one wanted to be around you? This is what happens when we consume "diet food," our neurotransmitters drop and we become another person.

For 90% of dieters, a deficiency in one of four key brain chemicals can trigger weight gain, fatigue, and stress. The key to losing weight doesn’t lie in deprivation diets; it lies in balancing our neurochemicals. Many nutritionists and advanced practitioners are focusing on how the brain affects our health.
1. Dopamine controls metabolism
2. Acetylcholine regulates fat storage
3. GABA curbs emotional eating
4. Serotonin influences appetite. 
When these primary brain chemicals are balanced, our bodies are more able to lose those unwanted pounds.
