About this ebook
Sugar Addiction explores the pervasive impact of excessive sugar consumption on both physical and mental health, revealing how it can hijack the brain's reward pathways, similar to other addictive substances.
The book examines the neurobiological mechanisms behind sugar cravings, detailing how sugar intake triggers dopamine release, potentially leading to altered brain circuitry and a cycle of dependence.
Intriguingly, our evolutionary ancestors rarely encountered concentrated sources of sugar, making the modern overabundance a relatively new challenge for our bodies.

The book navigates the complex relationship between sugar, health, and psychology, dividing its analysis into sections that cover neurological impacts, physical health consequences like insulin resistance and inflammation, and psychological aspects of sugar addiction.
It then transitions to practical strategies, including meal planning, behavioral modification, and mindfulness exercises, all aimed at helping readers break free from sugar's grip.
By combining scientific research with actionable advice, Sugar Addiction provides readers with the knowledge and tools necessary to manage cravings, adopt healthier eating habits, and support their overall well-being.
