Feel Good About Yourself Again

Have you experienced antidepressant weight gain? Do diets make you cranky? Do you crave sweets, starches and carbs? Do you overeat when stressed or worried? Are you ready to effortlessly lose up to 2 pounds of pure fat each week?

If you answered "yes" to any of these questions it is time for you to start the Serotonin Power Diet.

Fight Antidepressant Weight Gain and Curb Emotional Overeating

Weight gain is a common side-effect of taking antidepressants such as Prozac, Zoloft, Lexapro, Effexor, Paxil, and others. So far there is only one remedy for this unwanted side-effect: The brain must produce more serotonin.

Serotonin is the brain's natural "feel good" chemical. Through decades of medical research at MIT, Judy's husband Richard J. Wurtman, PhD discovered that your brain makes serotonin when you eat foods such as pretzels, pasta, rice, and potatoes - in the right amounts, at the right times of the day, and without protein. Judy discovered that serotonin curbs your appetite, restores mental energy, and soothes emotional stress.

The Serotonin Power Diet gives you the brainpower to stop your struggles with emotion-related weight gain such as PMS, winter blues, quitting smoking, and emotional distress.

Lose Stress While Losing Weight

We believe that dieters—and everyone else—should eat to decrease feelings of stress because it is the natural thing to do.

We also believe that a diet should never eliminate those foods that decrease your feelings of stress. The Serotonin Power Diet ensures that your serotonin reserves are sufficient so those emotional events do not force you to overeat.

Give Yourself a Serotonin Boost

30-60 minutes before your next meal, munch on a serotonin soothing snack: pretzels, cheerios, popcorn, or cherry licorice bites. Notice how it takes the edge off your appetite and energizes you.

By harnessing the power of serotonin, THE SEROTONIN POWER DIET allows you to eat less, lose weight and feel good about yourself again.

  Personal Success Stories

For the first time I have NO carb cravings. Before, the medications that changed my life for the better, wrecked myself image. I have tried everything - The Zone, Atkins, Weight Watchers (I gained every week at the meeting), Jenny Craig, 3 personal trainers, 2 nutritionists, and a hospital that told me that because of the medications I take there was nothing they could do for me.
