Is Your Struggle with Food an Addiction?
It’s not unusual to put on a few pounds during the holidays. It’s also typical to make a New Year’s resolution and be all in for the first few weeks. But, let me ask you a question. If you had an addiction to drugs would you start counting calories or carbohydrates? Would you reach out for the newest fad diet promising results? Of course not!
Some studies show that 95% of diets and weight-loss programs fail. Recent neuroscience research shows that the brain registers compulsive eating on an MRI scan as it does addiction. And yet we keep trying to treat obesity (food addiction) with diets.
Do you ever wonder if you're eating patterns might be symptomatic of an addiction?
