CARBOHYDRATE ADDICTION

• Dr. Unwin has always felt a crazy draw to food.
• She eventually began to see her food through an addiction lens.
• When Jen found low carb, she got the science, and on day 8 she started to feel much better.
• Only then did she understand — one bite is too many and one thousand is never enough.
• She knew she had to abstain completely and treat it like any other addiction.
  • So for her, there is no life into living.
    • You should evaluate your relationship to carbs before you decide whether you want to put LIL or not.
• For some people, this isn’t a problem, but for others, it absolutely changes your quality of life when you take control of the addiction.
• As addicts, we might know carbs are bad for us, but we feel like we can’t help it.
• This is why going all in from the beginning can be very important.
• Food manufacturers know people have these addictions, and they play into it.
• If you’re eating ‘keto’ things, it might still be feeding the addiction.
  • For Dr. Jen Unwin, peanut butter was something for her that continued to feed the addiction.
    • She had to cut it out completely.
