What then, of the book's sciency-sounding title? It refers to what Kerridge calls his "dopamine heroes" - beef, chicken, chocolate, fruit, nuts, spices and dairy. Feel-good foods he says are high in a chemical called tyrosine, which helps boost the release of dopamine, a neurotransmitter associated with pleasure and emotional rewards.
In fact, the way Kerridge tells it, it was fun to lose weight.

Tom Kerridge’s Dopamine Diet

This new approach to eating is tried and tested by the Michelin-starred chef himself, who has used it to shed 11 stone in three years. Kerridge’s aim was to lose weight without losing the joy of eating, and he has created a diet featuring ingredients that trigger dopamine production in the brain, known as the “happy hormone”.

Focusing on meals filled with vegetables and high quantities of protein (yes, there's plenty of meat and cheese), Kerridge’s book offers hearty, sophisticated fare.
