Escaping the Pleasure Trap: The Power of Nutrition & Fasting

Do you ever wonder why we are more drawn to fast food than broccoli? Or how even the smartest, savviest people can unknowingly sabotage their own well-being? This September, we’re excited to welcome Dr. Alan Goldhamer to answer these questions and discuss his book The Pleasure Trap, which he co-authored with Dr. Douglas Lisle. 

According to Dr. Goldhamer and Dr. Lisle, the “pleasure trap” occurs when dopamine, a neurochemical associated with pleasure, is artificially produced in excess. Dr. Goldhamer will discuss how his original research, comprehensive clinical studies, and successes with thousands of patients highlight the harmful and hidden force found in processed foods, and how we can reclaim our agency to live full, healthy lives.

Join us to learn about Dr. Goldhamer’s insightful research and his approach to restoring health naturally. A Spanish translator will be present at the event.

Choose from four entry prices: 

• $5 to attend
• $14 includes a copy of The Pleasure Trap
• $20 includes a copy of Dr. Goldhamer’s new book Can Fasting Save Your Life?
• $32 includes both books

Access is free to members of the church.

Books are available for pre-purchase online and will also be sold on-site. PPMNY cannot ship books to those who register and do not attend, so please plan to come to the event to retrieve your order.
