Episode Synopsis
Do you feel like you can’t trust yourself around food? Perhaps you’ve even told yourself, “I’m addicted to food.” But is food addiction real, or is something else at play? In this episode, we’ll dive into the science behind food cravings, binge eating, and why restriction may be the real culprit behind feeling out of control.

We’ll break down the controversy, explore what research actually tells us, and discuss why restriction can fuel the very behaviors that make food feel irresistible.
