I was eating way too much sugar, so in a desperate attempt to break the loop I decided to quit sugar for 30 days. In this episode you’ll learn why I did the challenge, what the struggles were, what benefits I saw, what it was like eating sugar again, and what my plan is moving forward. I will also explain why we crave sugar in sobriety, the negative health consequences of eating too much sugar, and how sugar can lead to low mood and depression.

What to listen to next:

E41: why do sober people want all the sugar

E52: alcohol and cirrhosis

E96: do sugar cravings increase the risk of relapse

E26: how the brain recovers in sobriety

E124: how long does it take to fully recover
