Dr. Nicole Avena: The Science that Proves Sugar is Addictive Artwork

The Kick Sugar Coach Podcast

Welcome to the Kick Sugar Coach Podcast! Everyone knows alcohol, drugs, and cigarettes can be addictive, but sugar? Oh yes, sugar! It flies under the radar, but it should not. Sugar is not only addictive it is also linked to modern chronic diseases such as obesity, diabetes, depression, cancer, high blood pressure, heart disease and more. Reducing or eliminating our consumption of refined carbohydrates is not easy. Our podcast is here to arm you with the information and inspiration you need to unhook from sugar’s seductive grip and fall in love with (and leverage the healing power of) whole foods. Becoming a whole food man/ woman is not just awesome for you, it is awesome for our children and our planet. We are swimming in processed and addictive food garbage. It is time for humans to rise up, fight back, eat real food, and feel fabulous. And it is time for sugar addicts to find the freedom they are seeking and discover the benefits and blessings of walking the path of recovery.

Dr. Nicole Avena: The Science that Proves Sugar is Addictive

October 27, 2022 • Dr. Nicole Avena • Episode 10

Dr. Nicole Avena's work is some of the first in the world that scientifically validated what most of us have discovered through personal experience… That sugar can act like an opiate and be addictive.

Her peer-reviewed clinical research was on lab animals, and inspired other researchers, medical doctors, and scientists from around the world to conduct their own research, much of which elaborated on and validated her original findings.

To say that Dr. Nicole Avena was one of the first scientists in the world to take this topic seriously is not an understatement.

Today Dr. Nicole Avena is the author of five books, Hedonic Eating and Why Diets Fail to name a few, and is considered a world expert on the topic of sugar/food addiction, and passionately shares her expertise to help mothers have healthy pregnancies, and raise healthy whole food children.
