The Packard Weight Health Plan book
by Andrew R. Packard, M.D. ’77 (Ballantine Books) Packard, who in his medical practice sees the chronic pain and illness that are directly related to excess weight, details his plan for “weight health” for life—one that is not a diet plan. The key to regulating weight, he feels, lies in understanding the triggers for releasing the neurohormones dopamine, serotonin, GABA and endorphins and other hormones like leptin, insulin and ghrelin.
