for us and what is potentially or definitely harmful to our
bodies? Cocores, in this easy-to-read book provides practical

Leading Neuropsychiatrist Dr.
James Cocores Introduces First Book
Clearly Explaining
Connection Between Feeding the
Brain and Feeding the Body
Cedar Knolls, N.J. (November,
2006) – Psyche Nutrition Sciences, Inc. (PNSI) today announced
the release of “BrightFoods – The Surprising Link Between Food
and Learning, Memory, Mood and Performance,” a comprehensive
manual for understanding how food affects performance, particularly
in students. The book, written by Dr. James Cocores, co-founder of
PNSI, takes a fresh approach to student health and learning issues
and how their nutritional habits affect them.
The book explains how people develop
and draw on their energy reserves so they can learn, remember, feel
good, and perform well. Just as it is with cars, it’s the “fuel
quality” people put in their bodies that determines how smoothly
they run. And it’s obvious from the way people so often feel
exhausted, unable to concentrate and out of gas (to continue the
metaphor) that individual eating habits don’t provide people with
what they need.
Dr. Cocores explains, “You’d think
that selecting and consuming foods that make us feel refreshed and
think clearly would be a snap to most people. After all, it’s been
years since the USDA unveiled and updated its Food Pyramid, and
bookshelves are full of best-selling diet plans that ‘guarantee’
health and fitness to anyone buying into their advice. Of course,
these programs often contradict each other, and their lack of
success is obvious to anyone who’s scanned a newsstand, the Internet
or a crowd lately - about two-thirds of all adults are now
overweight or obese, and roughly one in three kids and teens are, or
are close to being, overweight.”
Dr. Cocores continued, “The reason
these plans haven’t worked is because they don’t make the connection
between feeding the brain and feeding the body, and how the
chemistry of the mind affects physical needs. The problem isn’t
that we’re not willing to work to improve our eating habits. The
problem is that the diet plans themselves don’t work, because
they’re not based on the most recent clinical research available
from the scientific community about the mind-body connection, and
how the chemistry of the brain affects the chemistry of the
physique.”
PNSI co-founder Richard DeSimone
stated that: “BrightFoods – The Surprising Link Between Food and
Learning, Memory, Mood and Performance” is the first book that
clearly teaches people to recognize the differences between most
diets, while focusing on the waistline and the real impact food
haves on how they work, how they think and how they learn.
PNSI plans to promote the book on a
nationwide tour of schools beginning on the East Coast. The book is
available at
www.BrightFoodsBooks.com.

Matter
Over Mind or Mind Over Matter:
Obesity Not Disease of
Mid-Section, but Disease of the Brain
Cedar Knolls, N.J. (December 19,
2006) – Just in time for the holidays and those new year’s
resolutions comes “BrightFoods – Discover the Surprising Link
between Food and Learning, Memory, Mood and Performance,” a
comprehensive manual for understanding
that child or adult compulsive
eating and obesity, once believed to be a disease strictly of the
body, is actually a disease of the brain. Written
by Dr. James Cocores, co-founder of
Psyche Nutritional Sciences, Inc. (PNSI),
the book can be ordered now at
www.BrightFoodsBooks.com.
Dr. Cocores
explains, “Obesity is at an all-time high in our country and no one
has yet to address the critical connection between feeding the brain
and feeding the body, and how the chemistry of the mind affects
physical needs. Once people realize that they may be addicted to
certain carbs, fats, proteins, cheese, milk chocolate, salt and
other unhealthy foods when eaten in excess, only then will they be
able to understand why they can’t eat just one potato chip. And
only then will they truly be able to change their eating habits for
the better.”
Mark S. Gold,
M.D., Professor and Chief of the Department of Psychiatry,
Neuroscience, Anesthesiology, Community Health and Family Medicine
Division of Addiction Medicine at the McKnight Brain Institute
explains, “Substance Abuse Disorders, or addictions, have been
thought to be the exclusive province of drugs of abuse, like cocaine
or heroin. More recently, food has been considered a substance of
abuse, with morbid obesity, diabetes, hypertension, and other
consequences the result of a pathological attachment to food. What
we eat causes profound changes in the brain. This book by Dr.
Cocores is an easy-to-use guide to recovery from the disease of
obesity – a brain disease that causes shame and guilt and results in
secondary diseases of the body and spirit of the patient.”

Obesity is a Brain Disease New Book Claims
Cedar Knolls, N.J. (January 29, 2007) – Dr. James Cocores is
a nutritional neuropsychiatrist whose extensive research in
addiction recovery leads him to believe that obesity, popularly
believed to be a disease strictly of the body, is actually a disease
of the brain.
Dr. Cocores explains, “Obesity, a symptom of addictive food
dependence, is at an all-time high in our country yet no one has
addressed the crucial connection between how the chemistry of the
mind affects appetite and hunger. Once people realize that they may
actually be hooked on addictive milk chocolate, cheese, salt, carbs,
fats, proteins and other foods that fuel ongoing cravings, and how
medicinal foods cut appetite and provide superior nutrition, they
are able to understand exactly why they can’t eat just one potato
chip, or just one slice of pie.”
Mark S. Gold, M.D., Professor and Chief
of the Departments of Psychiatry, Neuroscience, Anesthesiology,
Community Health and Family Medicine Division of Addiction Medicine
at the McKnight Brain Institute states, “Substance Abuse Disorders,
or addictions, have been thought to be the exclusive province of
drugs of abuse, like cocaine or heroin. More recently, food has been
considered a substance of abuse, with morbid obesity, diabetes,
hypertension, and other consequences the result of a pathological
attachment to food. What we eat causes profound changes in the
brain. This book by Dr. Cocores is an easy-to-use guide to recovery
from the disease of obesity – a brain disease that causes shame and
guilt and results in secondary diseases of the body and spirit of
the patient.”
Dr. Cocores provides easy to read and scientifically based reasons
why medicinal foods provide appetite suppression while at the same
time providing profound benefits for overall health in general and
brain function in particular. He has authored “BrightFoods –
Discover the Surprising Link between Food and Learning, Memory,
Mood, and Performance,” as a compelling yet entertaining manual for
linking the foods we eat to either inefficient or enhanced learning,
memory, mood, and performance, in order to shed new light on the
causes and cures for child or adult compulsive eating. The book can
be found at
www.BrightFoodsBooks.com.
