If you over indulged during the festive season and need to lose some weight, then The Brain Surgeon’s Diet, by the internationally-recognised brain surgeon Dr W.A. Liebenberg is for you. To be released this month by Penguin South Africa, the book describes how to use your brain to lose weight permanently.
About the book
In a market flooded with quick-fix solutions for weight loss and healthy living, Dr Liebenberg provides an easy, safe and healthy alternative.
After being fat and unhappy about it for most of his life, Dr Liebenberg decided to utilise his professional knowledge of the brain to alter his own lifestyle. He worked out which foods could modify his brain chemistry to speed up his metabolism and change his attitude towards food – and it worked. He lost 70 kilogrammes and became a much healthier person.
The book is a step-by-step and realistic guide for taking control of your weight without having to rely on fad diets or appetite-suppressing drugs. It will empower you with knowledge that can keep you healthy and slim. In addition, it provides information on the energy values of foods and meal-planning guidelines that will make your weight-loss journey uncomplicated and guilt-free.
Having already helped thousands of others, Dr Liebenberg’s inspirational story and unrelenting honesty will show that using your brain to eat is the natural and most obvious way to lose weight.
Also available in Afrikaans as Die breinchirug se Dieet, this book can be found in all good book stores across the country.
