[00:00} About Dr. Vera Tarman And The Inspiration Behind Food Junkies
- Dr. Vera is an addiction specialist.
- Dr. Vera tackles the poorly understood issue of food addiction in her book.
[06:05] How Can Food Become Addictive?
- The inspiration for Food Junkies came from another book, Hooked.
- Get Hooked: www.amazon.ca/Hooked-Food-Gia...
[08:50] The Negative Impacts On Your Brain When Consuming Sugars
- Sugars will light up part of the brain that’s emotional and impulsive. It’s the part of our brain that makes us do things without thought - this is all subconscious thinking.
- Plus, sugar will trigger dopamine primarily, which is our neurochemical of desire. There's also endorphins and serotonin. Endorphins trigger comfort while serotonin triggers connectedness.
- Addiction will make you want an entire bag of chips. You can’t stop at one or two because your neural biology is so damaged.
- The physical manifestations of sugar and high-carb addiction are happening in the brain.
[17:00] What You Need To Know About The Different Stages of Food Addiction
- When we talk about food addiction, it's essentially like diabetes.
- Food addiction is a chronic and progressive condition.
- You may have a food addiction if you would rather stay at home and eat instead of going out for a social occasion.
- If you consistently do not feel well because of the food you eat, you may be suffering from food addiction.
- Another sign of food addiction is eating foods that you know are not going to make you feel good.
- If your obsession with food is excessive, then you are a food addict.
- Lastly, if you are in trouble with your health, then you may be a food addict.
- “You have to be very careful if you're moving down this path of food addiction.” -Dr. Vera
[25:25] Fasting For People With Addictions To Food
- Cutting out sugar will be the first step for people who have an addiction to food.
- Sugar is the trigger - so, ditch the trigger!
- If you have a food addiction, be aware of pitfalls. If you have a history of starving yourself, then fasting may not be the right path.
- Fasting can be healing; however, it’s a tool that can hurt you if you do not know how to use it.
- If it’s done carefully, fasting can be great for the body.
[30:40] Why Dr. Vera Is A Massive Fan Of Eating More Protein
[32:15] It Takes Three To Four Weeks To Kick Your Sugar Addiction
- It takes about three of four weeks to quit an addiction fully.
- A connection with a daily coach or sponsor will be critical on your journey.
- So, find support from someone while kicking your addiction.

Had to just not eat anything with a sweet taste because just the suggestion of it made me want all of the things stuck in my face at checkout or in television commercials. Had to TIVO programs to speed through them but check out is beating me up and none w/o junk for me and any kiddos. I am limiting time going to store to twice a month

Her book helped me quit sugar 6 years ago, but then the more I read the more I realised how addicted I was to peanut butter and nuts and also carbs of any kind- beans, fruits, oats etc . Every time I tried to introduce them into my diet I ended up bingeing, always! Not the sugar and fast food I mean, I haven’t had sugar since I quit. Nuts are even bigger trigger food for me and I won’t even start on peanut butter and bananas… No exception, every time I end up bingeing. It starts with “I will just have little” then “I am not craving them” and when the craving revs up it doesn’t stop until you just stop the food. No self control and willpower can override the craving, only people with an eating disorder can understand. And the withdrawal period is HELL. So I decided to not have any carbs - for the rest of my life if I have to /hoping some day with talk therapy I will be able to overcome the addiction to food so I can at least have hummus, oats etc/. After the withdrawal period the cravings subside and in two, thee months I didn’t even notice carbs anymore. I’d rather not eat that eat carbs

I felt like this was me writing this. I can so relate 😢 I'm so stuck in this addiction. I can't even moderate Greek yogurt. Hummus is getting difficult. I'm glad you figured this out. Can I ask what is your typical day of eating?

@natalia.armstrong Месяц назад

I've learnt the same from Bitten Jonsson's addiction doctor, where she tells to avoid the trigger foods. I'm a carnivore, but dairy foods trigger me, except for butter, so I had to avoid dairy (milk, cheese, cream).

Hi, if you join my academy I can give you one-on-one support and coaching calls to help you with this. I would recommend increasing fats and protein to help keep you satiated. L-glutamine has helped others with cravings as well. Here is a quick video with some tips ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-R3LV8Jkg4ec.html

Good thing you're catching it early. The longer you wait the more difficult it becomes

@brokefarmerjohn2422 Год назад

I have been heavy all my life, at the age of 18 I got more aggressive on loosing weight with diet pills, diets etc. I’m just over 30 now and in the process for weight loss surgery at around 500lbs. The best video I ever saw was a video called “The half ton man”, it’s on RU-vid. Before watching that video I felt like an addict but I never treated it like one in the past. Like I would rather go home and make a big pot of cheesy pasta then I would hang out with friends, I would actually find myself getting pissy if I was hanging out with someone and we didn’t get food for a long period of time and depending on how good the food was, was dependent on who I hung out with. For example I had a few buddies that liked red lobster, so we would hang out, I’d go get a big plate of shrimp linguine Alfredo and I would be good for the rest of the evening, I always needed my fix before I considered what we were doing to be fun. So many things don’t really interest me, sex and chasing women, I can take it or leave it, hanging out with my best friend, meh. I never caught on to gambling, I never caught on to drugs or drinking, sure I could do any for a evening in excess but I could leave it for months after and rarely did it. Never got addicted to cigarettes. All that stuff I can do and shut it off but food, food takes up most of my thought during the day, I’m watching the clock till lunch or eating after I get off work etc. people have asked me in the past if food is all I think about, I was a young man and my dad was watching me eat and said “Eating is like sex to you, isn’t it” of course I got pissed off and stopped eating denying it but he saw that pleasure I got from eating. I thought about suicide many times, I have always hated myself for over eating and being so heavy most of my life, I have tried so hard to beat it. I lost over 120lbs one year with the help from a weight loss clinic (diet pills), of course I wasn’t successful in the long run to the point where I seriously considered suicide but I told myself that I would push for weight loss surgery first. In that video called half ton man one fella says “how successful would an alcoholic be if you forced him to have one drink a day” or a drug addict if you forced him to take one hit a day? He said a powerful statement that stuck with me all these years later he said he knew he was going to heaven when he died because he’s been going threw hell here on earth or something to that extent. I related to him as soon as he said it. Food addiction is hell, being so overweight is hell on earth. I’m not making excuses for my size, I don’t blame anyone, I don’t even blame my genetics. Food Addiction is very much real and most days I envy that drug addict or a smoker because those are addictions you can get away from, I can never get away from food, every day till the day I die, I’ll want food more than anything on the earth, more than any relationship. One of the signs to myself I really had a problem is when I lied to family and friends, lied to get out of something that didn’t have food, lied to leave so I could go get food, stayed home so I could eat what I wanted. They took it as I really didn’t want to hang out or go on a date which I did, I just wanted to get High more, with a belly full of mac and cheese, cheesy Ramon noodles or some kind of cheesy pasta I feel a euphoria, like I just plunged a needle in my arm. Chasing that feeling for the last 20 or so years gave me pre diabetes, much worsened heart palpitations from sleep apnea, I also grew up sucking down energy drinks without fully knowing the damage they caused. Anyway enough of my rant, I appreciate people shining a light on food addiction.

@jenealeverett2269 Год назад

How do you fast

@herecomestheboom3811 Год назад

@@jenealeverett2269 Water fasting is the time you do not consume any food or drinks other then a few almost zero calorie items like water, black coffee and some teas. This gives your body time to heal inflammation and removes the habits of eating when you really do not need energy; calories is energy. So after dinner wait for twelve hours before consuming calories again. Do that for a week or so than move to thirteen hours and so on until you can go what makes you feel the best; 16-20 hours. I started fasting while eating carbs and still lost wait. Moving to Keto allowed me to become fat adapted so the body moved to burning body fat for its energy needs. Then after a few months start adding some veggies back in so the body learns to get energy from fat and carbs as needed and as you change what you are eating.

@sararainey118 3 года назад

I am very familiar with carb addiction and eating disorders of the binge and purge throughout college! And now in my later years! It definitely is mind work and our thoughts matter! ‘As a man thinks, so is he’!! I’m on a new journey for sure and using my prefrontal cortex instead of my primitive brain!

Really knowledgeable and very insightful. Parents should take a course before having children. So much is made of food as in food = love. You would never knowingly harm or give drugs to children. Yet the food science has managed to make food addictive and harmful and convinced us all that we are eating healthy. Thanks to both of you for this video.

@miamiomi 4 дня назад

When I am physically and mentally exhausted, EVERY food is a trigger food for me. And the permanent overeating exhausts me even more. I don't know how to get out of this since I can't just cut out the trigger, I got to eat SOMETHING. Abstinence isn't possible. I know that exercising would help to break the vicious cycle - this gives me energy and decreases the craving - but I'm just too exhausted to get going.

@miamiomi 4 дня назад

My diet is low carb. I don't eat any sugar or refined carbs anymore. But still I am addicted to food.

@maddiekeifer1465 3 года назад

Yes!!! My sister says once she hits the two week mark in keto it is easy to stay on. I get that! But, for me, I can go one day on keto and I’m so proud of myself, but on the second day I crash and burn. We need tips on how to get from day one to day two, from week one to week two, etc. After listening to this, I think it must have to do with how far on the scale of addiction we are. I am definitely more addictive than my sister, therefore, sticking to keto is so much harder for me than her.

According to Gabor Maté behind every addiction is trauma. We need to heal at root level or it is all mere fighting symptoms. I mean how many gastric bypass people switched to alcohol addiction after they could not numb emotional pain with food anymore? A LOT. From the fire into the frying pan or whatchamacallit
