You’re Not Broken—Your Brain’s Just Addicted: The Truth About Food, Cravings, and Control
In this eye-opening episode, Dr. Glenn Livingston reveals how the food industry hacks your brain to keep you hooked—and why your cravings aren’t your fault. From years of consulting for Fortune 500 food companies to overcoming his own 300-pound binge eating struggle, Dr. Glenn explains the real neuroscience behind food addiction.

We dive into how processed foods manipulate the “bliss point,” why emotional trauma isn’t the root cause of overeating, and the powerful brain-based method he used to take back control. If you’ve ever felt like you have no willpower or can’t stop eating junk, this episode will give you practical tools and hope. You’ll learn how to retrain your brain, silence the inner sabotage voice, and finally feel free around food.
