Tricia Nelson is an emotional eating expert and the author of Heal Your Hunger: 7 Simple Steps to End Emotional Eating.  I am delighted to have the opportunity to talk with her because emotional eating, while it might sound like a departure for me, is a common problem among us MTHFR folks.  

Anyone with MTHFR, COMT fast, or MAO-A fast can be more susceptible than average to emotional eating because emotional eating typically stems from low dopamine or low serotonin. Emotional eating falls within the realm of addictive behaviors and so it can be an MTHFR issue.

The full interview is roughly 30 minutes and well worth a watch - check it out in the show notes here.  To visit Tricia Nelson's website or schedule a consultation with her, please go to healyourhunger.com.
