Are sugar and processed foods basically drug foods?
Here is a full lecture that I often give my clients in various treatment centers on why I believe this to be true. It covers the biology of food addiction—the hormonal and neuro-chemical drives to overeat – how this process is the same as any other addiction. If you want to learn more, we have an excellent Adapt Your Life Sugar and Food Addiction course (16 modules, pdfs etc) for a small fee.
Want to meet a few key spokespersons in the field to talk about food addiction and recovery? This is the full lecture with some interviews – free!
Join me, Dr. Vera Tarman, Amanda Ascione, Zippy Livneh, Esther Helga, and Amanda Leith, as they talk about their own experiences with food addiction and recovery.
My name is Dr. Vera Tarman, and I am an addictions physician based in Toronto, Canada. I am the Medical Director of Renascent and a senior staff physician at Salvation Army. With over 20 years of experience, I have a passion for teaching the fascinating subject of the biology of addiction, ie alcohol, cocaine, cannabis, and opiates, especially about sugar and food addiction.
I have presented at international public forums and media platforms to educate and advocate on sugar and food addiction. Please read my book “Food Junkies: Recovery from Food Addiction”, and listen to our popular Food Junkies podcast.
