When Sugar Becomes Addictive with Ali Miller, RD (229)
Season 11
Episode 229
Published 6 years, 5 months ago
Description
Loving sugar or salty carbs isn’t only about taste. The main root cause of craving processed foods is it’s often your body's way of trying to “keep the lights on” from physiological imbalances.
In today’s episode with Ali Miller, holistic RD, we will discuss:
- What is happening physically that requires us to “feed the (sugar) beast” and how to end the physical addiction of sugar cravings
- Why ketones and metabolic flexibility matter and being “keto” isn’t the only way to get there
- A radically different idea of food freedom that clashes with Intuitive Eating because of how processed foods deregulate the body
- Why zero-calorie sweeteners like stevia get a “zero” in Ali’s book
