The HUNGER HERO DIET is brimming with knowledge, referencing more than 100 of the latest scientific research papers, a chapter investigating dozens of popular diets, and a short expose of the pros and cons of weight loss surgery. Another chapter covers nutrition basics, to prepare you for the more advanced topics of nutritional biochemistry that so many people want to know about – such as ‘superfoods’ versus functional foods, antioxidants, probiotics, prebiotics, the gut microbiome, and how the ‘gut-brain-axis’ plays such a crucial role in our physical and mental health.
Each new chapter builds on the last, leading you on a journey of self-discovery as we delve into the Science of Food, Mood and Weight Loss.
The DIET PLAN is incredibly simple and easy to follow, with more than 50 colour images of delicious food, and lots of recipes to get your started. The HUNGER HEROES are the secret weapons; ordinary foods and smart snacks that champion our weight loss goals. We even provide a shopping list.
And to help you lose the weight, and keep it off, we face the uncomfortable truth about how we got so fat. We provide a few simple tasks to help you identify the behaviours that are keeping you fat, and then gently coach you into finding appropriate ways of dealing with those situations. This is the ultimate self-help guide for anyone who is overweight, obese, unable to exercise, or challenged by depression. Knowledge is power.
‘Give a hungry person a fish, and they’ll eat for a day. Teach them to fish, and they’ll have the skills to feed themselves for a lifetime’. Knowledge is power.

About the author
Tentang Penulis
Kathryn is an award-winning author who creates a safe space to explore the most harrowing and intimate of life’s challenges.First and foremost, she is a survivor; having learnt ways to manage the aftershock of multiple violent and traumatic events across her lifetime. And she is brave; facing adversity head-on, never giving up, always searching for a way forward.Fate has not been kind, but not for lack of trying. It has always been a struggle against the odds. Born into a family of little means, in an era of female subservience, it would always end in tears. But being both an optimist and a pragmatist, that frustration pushed her forward. At the first opportunity, she packed her bags and headed off in search of adventure. Those stories are now the inspiration behind a series of planned novellas and short stories, more a magical mystery tour than a memoir, but with enough colour and substance to carry the tag of ‘creative non-fiction’.But for now, Kathryn has brought to fruition a non-fiction work which is the culmination of 10 years university training, two years of intense scientific investigation and experimentation, and another two years turning all that knowledge into a book that people might enjoy. Written in a conversational tone, of one friend to another, the HUNGER HERO DIET (How to Lose Weight and Break the Depression Cycle – Without Exercise, Drugs, or Surgery), is a compelling read. Engaging readers from page one, this book makes nutritional biochemistry and behavioural science fully accessible, backed up with lots of simple tasks and tasty recipes. The author takes the reader on a personalized quest of self-discovery, with much encouragement along the way. It was a labour of love… dedicated to those who suffer quietly in the shadows.
