Episode 180: Dr. Vera Tarman

Thank you for joining us for another episode of the Low Carb MD
Podcast. Dr. Vera Tarman is a leading expert on food addiction
and—through her writings, speaking, and workshops—has been
helping patients overcome their addictions to sugar and processed
food for many years. She is the author of several books on the
topic of food addiction and hosts her own podcast in which she
talks with expert guests about health, nutrition, and addiction.


In this episode, Brian, Tro, and Vera discuss why the idea of
food addiction has been so slow to catch on in the medical
industry, the need for clinical research on food addiction, the
relationship between stress and weight gain, the problem of
hyper-palatable foods, whether there is any benefit in using
sweeteners instead of sugar to help kick a sugar addiction, how
to find support for your addiction recovery journey, and whether
moderation is possible for true addicts.
