Is eliminating sugar a symptom of an eating disorder, or is it the key to ultimate food freedom?

In this episode of the Kick Sugar Coach podcast, Florence sits down with Toronto-based psychotherapist Brian Maummel to untangle the complex intersection of food addiction, binge eating, and weight management. Drawing from his own lived experience with exercise bulimia and binge eating, as well as his deep clinical expertise, Brian breaks down why the popular "all foods fit" model simply doesn't work for everyone—and why choosing an abstinence model might be the most self-loving decision you can make.

Tune in to discover:

• The "All Foods Fit" Trap: Why traditional binge-eating recovery advice often fails people on the food addiction spectrum.
• The Trigger Food Test: A practical framework (3 days, 3 weeks, 3 months) to identify the foods causing your cravings and quiet your mental "food noise."
• Healing the Root: Why addressing low self-esteem and body shame must happen if you want to find lasting peace with food.
• Brian’s 1-Year Milestone: How going completely sugar-free erased Brian's chronic back pain and transformed his mental clarity.

If you are tired of the restrict-and-binge cycle and want to learn how to nurture a positive, sustainable relationship with food and your body, this episode is for you.
