Dr Susan is a two-time New York Times best-selling author and brain and cognitive scientist specializing in the psychology of eating

Her new book REZOOM: The Powerful Reframe to End the Crash-and-Burn Cycle of Food Addiction talks about her radical and science-verified approach to weight loss and eating that has seen widespread, sustainable success and twice been covered in The Journal of Nutrition and Weight Loss.
