During my work with eating disorders and addictions in Denmark I came to realize how important it is to understand that addictions cannot be treated through psychotherapy alone - simply because they are based on biochemistry imbalances that set the individual up to crave specific substances beyond their control. You can have all the insight, knowledge and skills on how to deal with stressors in life etc. but if you are fighting against your biology, you are up against powers stronger than you! It has NOTHING to do with lack of morals or willpower, but rather everything to do with brainpower.
This led me to initiate their nutritional treatment program consisting of amino acid therapy to help combat cravings and stabilize those neurotransmitters that are associated with the various types of addictions. They now have the highest success rate in treating food addictions and co-dependencies in the world.
Similar for every addiction - whether it be food, drug, alcohol - or even behavioral addictions (stealing, shopping, cutting, sex etc.) - is that they are based on specific nutrient deficiencies. Understanding this basic fact along with integrating the science of nutrigenomics - how nutrition affects our genotype - enables us to cut the chains of addiction FOR LIFE!
In this clip, Julia Ross explains the background of food addiction which you can read more about in her book The Diet Cure, which is a good book to get a basic understanding of what exactly you are up against when it comes to dealing with addictions.
In order to have your biochemistry type defined and brain chemical imbalances determined, you can make an appointment with The Nutrition Doctor here.
