Hey folks, this is Abel James and thanks so much for joining us on the fat burning man show where we talk about real food and real results.

Do you have any bad habits? Why is it that sometimes we find ourselves repeating undesirable behaviors despite our best attempts to change?

Well, in an age when our communication has been degraded to typing with our thumbs and screaming into silly smart devices, human relationships, it seems, are suddenly a jeopardy.

So how can we turn down our anxiety, reprogram our brains, and work with our brain chemistry to create the positive changes we actually want in our lives?

If you've ever been derailed by your inner monkey or dealt with existential angst, this show is for you.

Returning to the podcast today is one of my favorite people to talk to, Loretta Broooning PhD.

She's a professor bestselling author, host of the Happy Brain podcast and founder of the Inner Mammal Institute.

In today's show, Dr. Broooning is sharing critical insight into how we can rewire our brains and boost serotonin dopamine and oxytocin levels.

Before we get there though, here's a review for the New York Times bestselling wild diet book that came in on Amazon.

Vanessa says, 5 out of 5 stars, excellent and thorough, a comprehensive and enjoyable read that challenges conventional thinking.

Abel made me reconsider my approach to food. I look forward to hearing more.

Hey Vanessa, thank you so much for that review, and for those of you out there who are just dipping your toes into the show or maybe new to our content and channels, check out the wild diet book on Amazon.

At this point, it's been out for G6 years, I think, but it's a New York Times bestseller. A lot of people have it.

If you do have it on your shelf, then pick it back up because there are a lot of recipes that I hope will be worth it for the rest of your life.

But also if you haven't checked out my book designer, baby, still get scabies. It's a collection of satire and poetry.

And you can get that also on Amazon as an audio book, as a physical book on paperback as well as an ebook. And we often have give away.

So if you'd like any of these books for free, we've given over 10,000 books and ebooks away every year for the past few years.
