Liv Label Free | Neurodivergent Eating Disorder Recovery

Does extreme hunger lead to sugar addiction and diabetes?


Listen Later

Are you craving and eating LOTS of sugar during anorexia recovery? You're not alone! When I was overtaken by the wave of extreme hunger, all I wanted to eat was junk food – cookies, cakes, ice cream, peanut butter, nutella, biscoff, granola, cereal – you name it! While part of me feared the bodily changes that accompanied weight gain, a greater part of me feared that I was becoming a sugar addict and was developing diabetes after my eating disorder. In this episode, you'll learn:

  • Livia's story with extreme hunger and sugar addiction
  • Why the body prefers junk food in recovery
  • The role of insulin resistance in anorexia recovery
  • Why being insulin resistant does NOT mean you are becoming diabetic
  • What to eat to overcome your sugar addiction
